Hosted by 25 municipalities along the east and west branches of the Brandywine Creek in Chester and Delaware counties, the Brandywine Creek Greenway connects a comprehensive network of bucolic greenways, open space, and trails, and the Brandywine Conservancy is offering an exciting way to experience it.
“Rally ‘Round the Races” on Sunday, Oct. 9, will offer an inventive, scenic fall drive along the Brandywine Creek Greenway. Prizes for optimum time and mileage are at stake as teams unravel the route and discover the answers to questions about this important corridor and efforts to protect it. A luncheon party awaits all at the last checkpoint, which is a secret location, according to a conservancy press release.
The race starts at 9:30 a.m., and a $165 ticket registers your car and up to four people, including the driver, for the rally and lunch. If your party exceeds four people, you can register additional adults (or children 12 and older) for an extra $25 each. Additional children under 12 are free, but must be registered.
The drive will take about 1.5 hours, whether you travel in the family car or the family heirloom. It will start at the Brandywine Conservancy-preserved Birmingham Hill Battlefield Trail, located near the intersection of Birmingham and Thornbury roads in Birmingham Township.
Clues will be provided, and a good navigator is highly recommended; the journey will traverse the natural fall beauty and historic landmarks of the Brandywine Valley Scenic Byway.
“I loved driving through the beautiful countryside protected by the Brandywine Conservancy, and my team was awesome," said Cathy Ward, a past winner.
