The Sports Farm - the home of the Mount Joy Sportsmen's Association is located 1/4 mile north of Mount Joy, Pa. Boasting a membership of more than 700, the club offers many facilities. In addition to Rifle and Pistol Shooting, there is an Archery Range, a Trap Field and a picnic area.
When the Buffalo Day Express left the rails on the Pennsy's main line a mile east of Mt. Joy on April 28, 1909 it attracted enough interest to generate a whole series of view cards showing the cars helter skelter all over the tracks but apparently the carnage was at a minimum which allowed one of the trains porters to pose in his clean white jacket.
