Chester County Day originated in 1936, when Mrs. William A. Limberger and her fellow members of the Women’s Auxiliary to Chester County Hospital hosted “West Chester Day,” a house tour that for $1.00 allowed admittance to 22 homes. Now the longest running house tour in the United States, Chester County Day has benefited Chester County Hospital from the start.
Over its 75 years, the tour has been designed to feature the four quadrants of Chester County with each section taking turns being featured on “The Day.” However, this year, the event planners are returning to its 1936 roots and focusing their attention on the Borough of West Chester. With hundreds of years of history, the Borough is the perfect spot to celebrate the 75th year, and everyone is welcome to celebrate the anniversary of this Chester County tradition on Saturday, October 3.
The Day begins with the pageantry and excitement of a fox hunt. The Radnor Hunt will set off promptly at 9 am on its beautiful grounds. Afterward, a short drive to the Borough of West Chester will lead you to the start of the 75th Chester County Day tour. Located on West Chester’s oldest road, High Street, visit the oldest inhabited structure in the Borough, which was built in 1712 and then renovated by a well-known author in the 1920’s. Stroll through the neighborhoods of the north section of West Chester to visit charming mansions where your imagination can take you to a bygone era of the Great Gatsby lifestyle. Stop by the home of former builder Henry Price, and then see how a newly constructed home fits into the historic mix on East Marshall Street. Listen for the sound of the horse-drawn carriages as they make their way through the shaded and wide streets of the north end of town. Swing by the West Chester Public Library, one of the Borough’s most impressive public buildings, built in 1888 in Queen Anne style.
Continue your tour on South New Street and tour a historic bank barn and manor house, where you will be enchanted by the magnificent trees, pond, historical buildings and serene atmosphere, all while refueling yourself with one of Arianna’s Gourmet Café’s boxed lunches. From there, visit a nearby horse farm, a spectacular house and restored mill overlooking Crum Creek. See Historic Sugartown, a rural crossroads village dating from the late 18th century. Stop by the General Store, Carriage Museum and a book bindery. If you arrive hungry, Arianna’s offers a second refreshment stop here with additional delicious boxed lunches.
Whether you begin with the first house on the tour or start with the final home in the tour – your day will be full and filled with the beauty and history of Chester County hundreds of years in the making.
WHEN: Saturday, October 3, 2015 @ 10 am-5 pm
WHERE: Borough of Chester County
TICKETS: On sale from September 2-29 by mail, online, or at the satellite locations listed on our website.
CONTACT: 610-431-5328
MORE INFO: Organized by The Women’s Auxiliary to the Chester County Hospital, Chester County Day is a 75-year autumn tradition. Proceeds from the tour benefit the Women’s Auxiliary pledge for the Cardiac Catheterization Lab project, a $4.8 million replacement project for Interventional Laboratory 3. This room is used for complex ablation cases, laser peripheral vascular intervention and other complex peripheral vascular procedures. Learn more at one of the free public preview lectures throughout the county.

Anytime Fitness is offering FREE fitness consultations
and “Get Started” plans
PLUS JOIN FOR ONLY $1!
Fall is the time of year when young people head back to school and families start getting back to their routines - including their health and fitness routines, which may have slipped or changed during the summer months. In fact, fitness industry analysts say as many people join gyms during the month of October as in January.
The most common reason why adults don’t exercise more regularly is that they “just don’t know how to get started,” according to a recent study conducted by Anytime Fitness, the world’s fastest-growing fitness club chain.
That’s why the Anytime Fitness club located in Garnet Valley Plaza-91 Wilmington-West Chester Pike, Chadds Ford PA 19317 (Next to Firebirds Restaurant) is offering a special deal for new members. Anyone who joins the club between September 28 and October 16 can do so for ONLY $1 and will receive a Free Get Started Plan (valued at $199). This plan includes a free fitness consultation, and a 30-day fitness program.
“We understand how difficult it can be to get started on a new routine – no matter how good you know it will be for you,” said John Fletcher, Anytime Fitness owner. And it’s why we developed our ‘Get Started’ plan, which includes a 30-day personalized workout calendar and guidance from our expert staff to help new members get off to a solid start on their fitness journeys. Every workout plan will be based on the outcome of a comprehensive fitness consultation.”
VIEW INSPIRATIONAL STORIES HERE: www.MyAnytimeStory.com
Hundreds of Anytime Fitness members nationwide have recently begun submitting their personal stories on the company’s website. The stories include reasons for beginning a fitness journey like: “I realized my new hobby was eating – a lot,” “I didn’t like the person looking back at me in the mirror,” and “My two-year-old nephew could out-run me.”
“Ask just about anyone to list the most important things in their life and nearly everyone will mention ‘health,’” said Fletcher. “But too many people simply don’t know how to get started. We’re here to help fix that – and there’s no better time than the present.”
For more information about the free “Get Started” plans at Anytime Fitness, call 484-840-8971 to set up an appointment or visit us on the web.
