“Let us disappoint the Men who are raising themselves on the ruin of this Country. Let us convince every invader of our freedom, that we will be as free as the constitution our fathers recognized, will justify.” –Samuel Adams, A State of the Rights of the Colonists, 1772
I’ve attended in the past. It’s an excellent “quick hit” TOR, in that it’s only six hours on a Saturday. Because of its unique location and proximity to major highways you get a really nice mix of collectors and vendors from New England, upstate NY, NJ, DE, MD, VA, WV, and obviously Pennsylvania. I’ve seen some Ohio collectors there as well. That’s a large cross section of the collecting community with people coming from lodges/councils in three Regions of the US (NE, Central and Southern). The Lodge 44 guys do it right, they help dealers unload and create a really great TOR atmosphere. It’s a great event.
