What does your favorite sweatshirt say?
This sweatshirt says Lancaster County. The design features two symbols of Lancaster County: the Red Rose and a Conestoga wagon.
This sweatshirt is a curiosity grabber.
Just imagine a college student away from home. If you are a college student this will be easy. If you are not a college student then imagine a close relative who is: child, grandchild, niece, or nephew wearing this sweatshirt and another student asks what it says and what does the graphic mean.
“Why is there a red rose on your sweatshirt?" they will ask.
"The Red Rose is a symbol of where I am from, Lancaster County. The county was named after the city of Lancaster in England," you will explain.
You could also point out that the Red Rose was associated with the House of Lancaster, a branch of the royal family of England. In the 1400s, the House of Lancaster and the House of York, using the White Rose as a symbol, fought a civil war called the War of the Roses. A rivalry that continues even in the New World.
"What is with the covered wagon?", they might ask.
"That is a Conestoga wagon. In early America, those wagons helped the Pioneers settle the wilderness from the Appalachians to the Mississippi," you will answer.
In addition, you could talk about how people from Lancaster and southeastern PA can tell if you're from around here by how you pronounce 'Lancaster'. If you pronounce it 'Lang-kister', you're from around here. If you pronounce it 'Lan-kaster', like the actor Burt Lancaster, then you're not from around here
You make a connection that would have otherwise just slipped away.
