ChannelCraft2 – Dean Helfer |
Channel Craft has been creating authentic American toys, games and puzzles in the former Army Corps of Engineers site at Lock 4 since 1991. Helfer invites those who attend to bring their favorite childhood toy, game or puzzle for everyone to see and remember. He also will have free toys for everyone! Members and other interested persons from the surrounding communities are cordially invited to attend.
Ken Thompson, president of the CAHS, Inc. Program Committee, assures all who attend that you will learn much about this treasure of a company that is in our own back yard which serves customers around the world. And you won't leave empty handed, according to Helfer.
The program begins at 7 p.m. in Riverside Place of the SPHS building (formerly Montgomery Wards). For questions, please call Ken Thompson at 724-925-1742.
