In 2016, AMT had over 1,300,000 guests visit our website. Because of the high volume of web traffic, and to better help our guests plan their visit to Lancaster County, we created a new Stay & Play section dedicated to showcasing local hotels, bed & breakfasts, restaurants, attractions, shops, and campgrounds.

To access this valuable info, click on the “Guest Information” tab near the top and center of our homepage. Clicking on a category icon, or a category name in the left column, will bring up a list under that heading; clicking on a specific establishment will take you directly to their website.

We’re excited to offer this new resource to our guests, and to partner with so many fine establishments in Lancaster County. We encourage you to check out all that they have to offer!

A few weeks back we announced that AMT would be supporting the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank by hosting a Food Drive during the months of November and December.

We’re thrilled to report that due to the generosity of our AMT guests and staff, we’ve donated 3,155 pounds of food products as of the end of November. This will put over 2,500 meals on the tables of local families!

In addition to the incredible amount of donations from our guests, AMT staff also donated and participated in an inter-departmental “Can-struction” challenge. By using the food items their departments donated, along with tons of ingenuity and creativity, their efforts produced Santa’s Chimney along with a milk and cookie table, a Christmas Tree (made with 586 items!), and a festive Holiday Wreath. See the photos below.

AMT will continue to collect food products through the end of our 2016 Christmas Show. Please consider bringing a donation or two if you’re attending the show in December. Click here for a list of the most needed items.

To those who have or will participate in AMT’s Food Drive this season, we say a big THANK YOU!
