Almost all guests were from other towns in Pennsylvania, and many Everett residents visited the Crossing House for community events such as hay rides. Groups like the Juniata Pedestrian Club, a gubernatorial fishing party, and employees of the Lineman W. U. Telegraph Co. also held events at the Crossing House.
