[DVBC] It's coming!!! The Great Pumpkin Carve

[Chaga, Debra]

> It's almost here!    The Great Pumpkin Carve will happen Thursday,
> October 26th beginning 5:00 p.m. through Saturday night.  Come out and
> see some really great carvings.  The contest begins at 5:00 and the
> pumpkins are judged at 8:00.  The pumpkins are carved in a grove of
> trees with lights strung up.  Every so often then turn off the lights
> and the pumpkins are illuminated from candles.  It's cool to see.
> Food and beverages are available for purchase as well as hay rides.
> There's usually live music.  I go on Thursday since you get to vote
> and see who won.  Plus the pumpkins are the freshest.  Sometimes by
> Saturday night they are a little wilted.  Crowds are heavier on Friday
> and Saturday but if you can't make it Thursday, those nights are fun

It's not hard to get to.  We regularly ride pass the site on many of our
DVBC rides.  Take Route 1 south, crossover Rt 202, and make a right on
Creek Rd (used to be called Rt 100).  The Chadds Ford Historical Society
is about 1/4 mile on the left.  Parking is available.  Dress warmly and
were shoes that can deal with wet grass.  You'll be outside not far from
the Brandywine River.
