It was also used at the same time by a competing singing cowboy show, "Whoa, Nellie" was a cry given by Gene Autry's sidekick Frog Milhouse (Smiley Burnette) as he tried to stay aboard his white horse Ring-eyed Nellie. Later Bozo the Clown also adapted (some would say stole) this phrase with "Whoa, Nellie Bozo!" as an exclamation of surprise. Then in the sixties, sports announcer Keith Jackson made the phrase famous. He variously claimed to have heard this from his grandfather and adopted it or borrowed it from announcer Dick Lane, depending on who he was talking to at the time. We know , of course, her heard the phrase from one of the two cowboy sidekicks and he liked the way it sounded. Or he liked clowns.
This is as far as you're allowed to go on the Keystone College walking trails. It turns into private property after this point, thus the name of the cache. Eventually, some years from now, you will be able to travel from these trails to Lake Winola or straight through to Clarks-Summit and beyond via rail trails that are being established by the Countryside Conservancy.They are in the process of acquiring the old Laurel Line rail bed. The Laurel line used to bring tourists and locals to an amusement park at the lake. You can park at the Boehm field parking area to access this. Bring water, your kids and geopups with you.
