Or maybe you could ride your Harley through the area once a day? You could consider it a public service and not charge the township!



LOL ... Winters coming!

Good idea. Why not have ALL of the Lanco-area Harley-Owners have organized rides around the affected areas on a scheduled basis. 100 of these non-muffled machines roaring around together would scare those crowds of crows, all the way to Mt. Gretna. It could be a happening. An annual event. A nightly parade of Harleys around the Crow Loop. The kids would love it. Definitely put Lancaster on the map. Think of the headlines. Environmentally-friendly, like-minded, bird-loving, cyclists join in effort to combat crowds of crows.

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Only one problem. EBender said winter is coming... apparently these Harley riders are pansies. Don't tell anyone. (That's a joke EBender - honest! )

OK, you are right. It is getting cold. Maybe the Crow Loop for these riders could send the parade of bikers through Long Park. There you could set-up all kinds of stuff in addition to the Christmas Decoration Thing (Do they still have that ?). Could be tied-into toys for tot's, etc., and the other charity stuff that biker's already do in the warmer months. We would definitely have to have something like a Biker Tunnel of Warmth set-up for the riders. This heated tunnel could be set-up next to the Save-The-Crow info booth.
