Delaware Mayflower Spring Reception

Enjoy a spring afternoon learning more about the historic Brandywine Summit Camp Meeting, a national historic district located at Concord Township, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. This rural location is encompassed by the natural beauty of the Brandywine River Valley and drew Methodists from nearby Wilmington, Delaware, and West Chester. The district contains 76 buildings in a vernacular camp meeting style of architecture near Chadds Ford village. The centerpiece of the community are the Tabernacle, built about 1884, and Pavilion, also dated to the 1880s. Most of the contributing buildings are cottages, built after the turn of the 20th century.

Finger sandwiches, fruit, cookies, coffee, and punch will be provided at no cost. A guide from the Camp Meeting will provide us with the historic background, as well as a small walking tour of the site and museum. Afterwards, you are welcome to gather at Penns Woods Winery for more fellowship.
