Carrie Johnson
Co-Founder of Drop Below The Surface Retreats
It’s been fun to think about this question. What are your three favorite things about Lancaster? Well, three things I certainly love about Lancaster are:
1. Community Support
The way that our community welcomes – and is fiercely loyal – to creators and starters of businesses, non-profits, social movements, and more. Being a “starter” myself, I have felt held by Lancaster County’s people in many ways. There is a sense here of taking care of our own.
2. Girls on the Run Lancaster’s 5K Races
I absolutely love being at the Girls on the Run 5K finish line. The promise that I see on the faces of each participating girl is pure sunshine and hope! It’s where my heart sings, and I feel such collective effervescence and pride in my community, our volunteers, and families.

3. The Franklin & Marshall College Campus
As an alumna of Franklin & Marshall College, I love sitting on an F&M blue Adirondack chair on Hartman Green, feeling the energy of the students and reliving four years of growth for me.
