Quarantine Stories & Photos

We are living in one of the most unique times in history. It is only natural that Mount Gretna Area Historical Society is creating a digital archive of stories, photos and videos that tell the story of the Mount Gretna area during this time and which future generations will appreciate. Would you be willing to send in a photo and/or video, story, poem or song that captures your experience during this time? Visit our Quarantine Stories page to learn more.
