Rick Fisher recently received a letter of commendation from the Lancaster County Commissioners recognizing the Albatwitch as the official monster of Lancaster County for the month of October. The letter also wishes success with the festival and notes the Albatwitch legend that describes the Albatwitch as a small bigfoot-like creature that steals apples around Chickies Park. “We certainly don't blame the Albatwitch for wanting to make Lancaster County its home, many do,” the letter adds.
A copy of the letter, shown here, is from Fisher's Facebook page.
Fisher, a published author and vice president of the Lower Susquehanna Archaeological Society, is one of the founders of Albatwitch Day, along with Chris Vera, Columbia Market House manager and president of the Columbia Historic Preservation Society.
October 5, 2024 marks the 11th anniversary of the Albatwitch Day Festival.
