Delight in dulcimer music at PPL’s Montour Environmental Preserve

February 25, 2011

What better way to chase away the winter blues than to enjoy a music-filled afternoon? Join us for a delightful dulcimer afternoon from 2-3:30 p.m. Sunday, March 20, at PPL’s Montour Environmental Preserve.

Celebrate the beginning of spring with the delightful sounds of dulcimer music. A.J. Bashore II will treat us to a mix of old-time, Celtic, Appalachian, contemporary and original music. This special performance promises to delight both young and old with the unique music of the Appalachian lap dulcimer.

This free program will take place at the Environmental Education Center. For directions, visit www.pplpreserves.com, click on “Montour” then select “Directions.” For more information, contact the preserve at 570-437-3131 or jdbeam@pplweb.com.

PPL operates the preserve, about four miles northeast of Washingtonville, in conjunction with its Montour power plant in Derry Township.

The Montour Environmental Preserve is in a broad valley in the beautiful Appalachian hills. In the center of the preserve is the 165-acre Lake Chillisquaque. The preserve offers a variety of educational and recreational opportunities, including hiking, nature observation and photography, birding, boating and fishing.

At our environmental preserves, PPL works to protect the land, care for endangered species and habitats, and provide public recreational facilities for people to learn about and enjoy nature’s beauty. For more information about PPL’s environmental preserves, visitwww.pplpreserves.com.
