New signs at Columbia Plaza

The Columbia Plaza construction project continues with the recent addition of signs at Musser’s Market and the Tobacco Shop.
 Musser’s got theirs.

But sorry, Dollar Store, you’ll have to wait.
The Columbia Family Restaurant currently sports a vinyl banner and may not get a new sign, since they are moving to West Hempfield – near K-Mart.

A full-service garage – cars and horses fixed here

Jeff from Susquehanna Automotive holds the head of a concrete horse that was recently vandalized at its resting place at Fourth and Chestnut (next to the Turkey Hill Minit Market).

 Someone pushed the horse over between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m., breaking off the head.

Jeff and Don, who operate the garage, plan to reconnect the head with dowel rods and a special adhesive.
 Susquehanna Automotive is located in the former Doutrich’s Automotive building.
Susquehanna Automotive is one of the sponsors of the upcoming Thunder on the River car show on June 20.
