Vance Show Showcases Capitol Centennial

HARRISBURG – Sen. Pat Vance's (R-Cumberland/York) November edition of the Vance Report features snippets of the five-day Capitol Centennial Celebration held in early October.

"President Teddy Roosevelt called the Capitol the handsomest state capitol building he had ever seen when he helped dedicated it on October 4, 1906," Vance said. "The building remains a treasure. I would encourage everyone to visit it and see for themselves."

The show begins with an interview with Ruthann Hubbert-Kemper, who is the executive director of the Capitol Preservation Committee. She discusses some of the history of the Capitol and gives a tour of the Capitol dome. The middle of the program features the centennial parade and rededication ceremony. It closes with the gala that capped the celebration.

Vance's show airs on Blue Ridge Communications at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays on Channel 8. Comcast Cable that serves the Shippensburg area will air the program at 4 p.m. on Thursdays on Channel 21. Comcast Cable that serves the Carlisle area will air the show at the same time but on Channel 11. York Community Access shows the program at 9 p.m. on the second Tuesday of the month on Channel 16. Finally, Comcast Cable in the Greater Harrisburg area will air the program on Channel 20 with no set time schedule.

Vance's district includes all of Cumberland County and Carroll, Fairview, Franklin, Monaghan, Warrington and Washington townships and Dillsburg, Franklintown and Wellsville boroughs in York County.
