IceFest 2026: Navigating Downtown Chambersburg Safely This Winter

It’s almost time for IceFest 2026! From January 29th to February 1st, downtown Chambersburg will transform into a winter wonderland with ice sculptures, the famous ice slide, and the Chili-Q.

While we’re all excited for the festivities, the end of January also brings the peak of Pennsylvania winter driving conditions. Whether you’re coming from Shippensburg, Hagerstown, or Waynesboro, making sure your vehicle is winter-ready is essential.

3 Tips for Winter Driving in the Cumberland Valley

1. Check Your Tread: The slushy roads around the Franklin County Courthouse can be slick. Ensure your tires have enough depth to grip the road.
2. AWD is Your Best Friend: If you’re tired of sliding around on Route 30, it might be time to upgrade to an All-Wheel Drive vehicle.
3. Battery Health: Cold snaps are famous for killing car batteries. Stop by our service area if you’ve had trouble starting your car on these chilly Chambersburg mornings.
