Envisioning a Ghost Landscape:  A Guided Walking Tour of Quittie Creek Nature Park in Annville

Join us for a guided walking tour of Annville's past along Quittie Creek led by Friends of Old Annville President, Quittapahilla Watershed Association President, and Nature Park Committee member Michael Schroeder.  Bring your imagination as we try to envision past landscapes from the faint traces that survive today.  Did you know what's now Quittie Creek Nature Park was an active limestone quarry and industrial zone for nearly a century (ca. 1870s–1950s)?  Or that from the 1930s to the 1960s, a large extended family, the Wilt family, lived in a 2-story, 5-bedroom house next to Millard’s Concrete Mill & Factory, which once stood just upstream of what's now the Swingholm Pedestrian Bridge?   Join us for this excursion into the past as we explore how Annville's history is intimately bound up with the flowing waters of Quittapahilla Creek and the landscape of what's now Quittie Creek Nature Park.  Meet at 4:00 PM at the foot of Swingholm Bridge on Bachman Road off Rt. 422 on Annville's east side.  Bring your own water.  Closed-toe shoes and long pants are recommended.  Free and open to the public, but registration is required and limited to the first 35 registrants.  Register via this EventBrite link:  https://tinyurl.com/3bpupxkv
