The East Branch of the Brandywine River will be the setting for the event, chosen as AMC’s 2011 Adopt-A-Waterway, a program aimed at bringing attention to the recreational values of rivers and streams which can provide water-based recreational opportunities including paddling, when enough rain provides adequate flows. The event will conclude at noon to allow participants to explore the Struble hiking trail and paddle on the East Branch of the Brandywine River.
Also, Please take a look at this totally state-of-the-art iphone technology that the Appalachian Mountain Club has created. It will be demonstrated this Saturday morning at our press event on the Brandywine Creek just North of Downingtown on Route 282 (Creek Road) at Shady Acres Campground from 10:00 AM till Noon.
