The Friends of Camp Security group will hold a fundraiser at Stony Run Brew House, 2605 E. Market St., York, from 6 to 9 p.m. on Thursday, May 23. Photographer Jennifer Runkle will open her exhibit documenting archaeological explorations at the site. Jonathan Stayer, a camp historian, will be present to answer any questions. Gift baskets will be awarded through a silent auction.
Recent remote sensing has identified areas of interest for the next dig, for which funding is being sought. Camp Security was one of only a few Revolutionary War prisoner-of-war camps, and it is known to be the only one that has not been completely developed over. For more information, readers may call Runkle at 717-779-7520.
