  • nice to meet you all. i don't know much about my new area, other than it's further away from my job. i work in baltimore county in maryland, and i probably will continue to do so. dh and i have 5 kids, ages 6-14, and this is our very first house, about 10 minutes from route 30; exit 20 (i think). one of my co-workers lives in dallastown. i hope you can give me pointers on where to go for a night out, where to take the kids, where is the movie theater, etc. i don't know anything. i may be working at the jcc this summer (i'm a teacher).

    Unless you go to the crappy theater as the West Manchester mall (off of 30) or the $2 theater off of Queen Street in South York, then the closest DECENT theater is in Hanover, which is about a half hour, although there is sort of a short cut that I could tell you, that woud avoid you going out of your way to get onto Rt 30 to get there. My mom works in Dover and DH is from Hanover so I used to drive to my mom's work from IL's house all of the time. There is a really cool Drive-In theater in Dillsburg, which is about 45 minutes away. Your kids would love it! It is the last one in this area.

    I still don't know a lot about going out in York other than to a few places. The "best" mall in York is the York Galleria, but other than that the best mall IMO is in Lancaster and it will be about 45 minutes from you. The Wal Mart in East York is MUCH better than the one in West York, but the Target in West York (near you) is pretty good.

  • I live in Maryland (also a teacher, Frederick Co) but wanted to second Abbie's thought of the Haar's Drive In in Dillsburg--that's where I grew up. They will probably open the end of this month or beginning of next month and they play new released movies Friday-Sunday nights all summer. Always a lot of fun and you pay to see two movies, less than at the regular theater for one movie. I can get from Dillsburg to West Manchester Mall area in about 30 minutes, so not a bad driver either.
  • I'm not in the York area but just wanted to say welcome back and good luck with the closing on your house!!
  • Hello!

    I live in West York (school district) and West Manchester (twp), which butts up against Dover. I'm probably not more than 10 minutes from you :)

     The girls already gave some good suggestions -- I don't have kids, so no suggestions on that front. We also just purchased our first home (last October).

     

    Odd about the Walmart-West comment above though. I vastly prefer the one on the west end (closer to your new home). Every time I go to the one on the east end of town, I'm literally the only shopper there who speaks english. Everyone around me is yammering away in spanish!

  • Welcome to the board!  I grew up in Dillsburg near Dover.
