Earlier this year I wrote an item about a guided bus tour of Doe Run Village that was in the planning stages, and I now have all the details. It's going to be on Thursday, August 1, with 50-minute tours starting at 4, 5, 6, and 7 p.m. at South Brandywine Middle School at Route 82 and Strasburg Road. The bus will make several stops in the Doe Run area and the former King Ranch.
The tour is free, but reservations are required and can be made online at Eventbrite.com (search for "Doe Run Village Bus Tour").
The day of the tour, Triple Fresh Market will be offering a BBQ supper from 3 to 7 on "the Green" in the village of Ercildoun.
The Doe Run Village tour is part of the Chester County Planning Commission's annual Town Tours and Village Walks series. Other tours this summer are in West Chester (June 13), Ludwig's Corner (June 20), Warwick Village (June 27), Lionville (July 11), Yellow Springs (July 18), Marshallton (July 25), Malvern (Aug. 8), Johnsontown (Aug. 22) and Brandywine Meadows Farm (Aug. 29).
In addition, a series of supper lectures and armchair tours will be held at Historic Yellow Springs: the topics are Sadsburyville (Aug. 15), Sugartown (Oct. 10), and the German Christmas tradition of "the Belsnickel" (Dec. 12). Reservations are required, and cost for the lecture and supper is $20.
