Happy Easter

I had the pleasure of being able to travel to Washington DC for the Cherry Blossom Festival recently and it truly was a magical place.  History is all around us and it's nice to know you don't have to travel too far to experience it.  We all have personal possessions in our lives that may conjure up memories of a more personal nature.  Our lives are filled with stories and events that are as significant to us as the monuments in Washington DC.  

At the Olde Barn Centre, we are brimming with treasures for your home.  Some old enough to have their own personal history like the Allegheny House bar featured in the last post.  Some new just waiting for you to take them home so you can make them part of your family history.  Stop by and take a walk down memory lane and go home with some future memories of your own.

I'm happy to report we will be having our 1st Sunday Markets again this year.  Sunday, June 5th will be the first and hopefully we won't have the issues with the weather we did last year.  I know we had reports of hail in Montoursville that morning but not a drop of moisture to be seen at the Barn.  Weather in the "Valley of the Susquehanna" needs it's own meteorologist, trust me.  Anyway, our 1st Sunday Market, June 5th, 2011 will run from 8 a.m. until 12 noon and currently we have 10 vendors returning from last years' markets.  These vendors will have their displays set up in the parking lot outside the Barn and their items range from old tools, furniture, glassware, linens, etc. to and including plants, herbs, baskets and other craft items.  Spaces are available just contact us at 570-546-7493.

The Olde Barn Centre is open daily from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m.; however on Sunday, June 5th we will open the building at 8 a.m. to coincide with the Market.  Join us if you can.  As a final note, we will be closed Easter Sunday to celebrate with our families and friends.  Easter is one of the 4 scheduled closings of the Olde Barn Centre.
