Thursday, March 15, 2012 - St Mary of Providence Center


HERB will lead a 6 mile late winter road walk letting the snow plows clear the way, you never know, because Mother Nature is fickle. The walk will start at the St. Mary of Providence Center south of Elverson. Upon arriving and parking at the retreat center we will take a short tour of the 50+ room restored mansion and walk along the stone-walled lanes around the property. Then, visit the historic company village of Isabella, pass the remains of an old iron works, and return to the mansion. A lunch stop afterwards is optional.

MEET: 9:30 A.M. @ Elverson Deli, Rtes. 23 & 82 in Elverson.

TELEPHONE: Herb 610-286-6886 with questions or further details.
