About this Event

. . Treat yourself to an unforgettable evening! The 2nd Annual Golden Harvest Gala returns on Saturday, November 14th, bringing together dancers, non-dancers, and friends alike from across Central Pennsylvania and Maryland for a spectacular celebration of dance, dining, and camaraderie. . . Presented by Keith Stremmel and JoAnn Tresco, this is a gala created for the community to experience a luxurious formal event. Regardless of if you dance or not, there will be several facets of the event that will keep you entertained. . .
