I was born down here in florida but grew up in Dallastown, Pa about 5 miles southeast of York. We used to work picking strawberries on a local fruit farm right after scholl ended for the summer to earn enough $ for admission to Hershey Park. (Of course if you got REALLY good grades you could go to a local supermarket and get a pass but that only worked for me once or twice).

as I recall east berlin was on us30 on the way to Gettysburg (if you are coming from Dallastown (York County) which is where I lived) and they had a rounda about in the middle of town.  And a restauraunt called the  Hoffbrau Haus (sp). I used to pass through there on the way to camp every summer.

see when I hear Lebanon my first thought is Lebanon, Pa. (which Coincedentally is rather near Hershey).Mostly because I grew up across the Sesquahanna river from both.

Being from the UK, I can't help thinking of the small middle eastern country, and the capital of Greece. You'd need a plane to get between them in under a couple of hours. You guys didn't even bother to put usual "new" infront of existing place names... ;p

How close to the Ohio River is Lebanon?  I'm located just across the river in WV - about 45 minutes away from Athens.  No game stores at all in my area. :sniff:

Kimberly,
 
I know I'm a little late responding to this and I hope it doesn't violate any policies or anything :)
 
I followed the link to see where the store that's closing is and it turns out that we are pretty close to you.  We own a game store in Lebanon Ohio - Ivory Tower Games.  Right now we're in about 700 sq feet, but in Oct we're going to do something game stores never seem to do anymore....We're moving into a 3200 sq foot space!!!  Well lit, lots of tables, a few separate rooms (for our noisier teen crowds!) and very family friendly.  Our two daughters that are 8 and 10 spend a lot of time playing in the store, so we wouldn't have it any other way!
 
We'd love for you to come down and play some LL games with us, maybe a bit far for a weekday trip, but not too bad for a weekend!

My favorite, local hobby store is closing it's doors. I am sad. I will miss everyone. I will my friends (I opened up more and talked more with those 20-30 game geeks guys than I did with any of the females I know or go to church with..)
 
It was a HUGE STORE with a HUGE gaming room, well lit. The walls were not plastered with posters and magazines of nearly naked ladies- and the people were thoughful and respectful when my kids were there- I will miss that for my kids.
 
 
 
I hate change and will now have to play LL games somewhere else! It took me over a year to know the names/recognize the faces of the guys that worked thee and a couple regulars.....(and I was there every Saturday almost!)
 
 
So, I am sad. I will my miss my gaming store....
