Mountville replacing historical markers - LancasterOnline

Go HERE for the article which states, in part: "To the west, a marker pole stands tilted and rusted along Route 441 near Columbia."

Today, I took these two shots of the pole, which is bent over and broken at the top, where the sign was removed.

But who removed it? It went missing fairly recently.

This is how the sign looked a few years ago.

Columbia residents oppose nude dancing at club

Testimony closed Wednesday evening on an application to allow full-nude dancing at a Columbia Borough strip club.

"We want to be nude like every other BYOB club in Pennsylvania and not work at a disadvantage," said Cassandra Fisher, general manager of Club Good Times, 425 Union St., where she also dances.

"Everyone would make more money if we were nude."

The community, however, was firm in its opposition to the plan. During nearly 30 minutes of public testimony before the borough's zoning hearing board, several residents registered their displeasure with the bar.

Union Street resident Biddie Helton said patrons exiting the club once harassed her to the extent that she pulled a shotgun on them.

Helton said it "is not fair for any woman in this town for their husbands to go into that bar and to witness these women taking their clothes off. This town does not need nude women. If they want to get naked, let them go to a parking lot and get naked."
