This Week

Saturday, August 14th - Biking

The Ohiopyle Bike trip WILL occur this Saturday (8/14/10)

The Ohiopyle Rappelling trip WILL NOT occur this Saturday (8/14/10) due to some sudden unforeseen circumstances… (A future rappelling trip, possibly to McConnell’s Mill this Fall is possible, stay tuned!)

Should you want to meet at the church and car pool, you should plan to meet about 8:45 AM and leave NO LATER than 9:00 AM! Individuals will need to plan this, I will NOT be at the church. So call or email friends if you plan to car pool, otherwise just see who shows up!…

Those who plan to drive separately (and those who meet at the church), need to plan to be at the “Train Station and Visitor’s Center” at 10:45 AM and leave by 11:00 AM. The bike trip will take about one hour+ each way. It is approximately 11 miles one way (22 miles round trip).

Bring money for lunch at “Sister’s Café” in Confluence and dinner at “Cracker Barrel” in New Stanton…

Bring a bathing suit, just in case we plan to swim after the bike ride. There is a place to shower fairly close to the Visitor’s Center…

If you do not have a bike, Bike rentals are available… “The Kick Stand” (part of Ohiopyle Trading Post and next to the Visitor’s Center) will rent bikes for $5/hour. Their phone number is 1-888-644-6795. So to rent for the ride would be about $20-25… (You will need a $10 deposit and a valid driver’s license.)

Directions - From the West: From the PA Turnpike, take Exit 91, Donegal. Turn left onto PA 31 east. Travel about two miles, turn right onto PA 711 and PA 381 south. Travel ten miles to Normalville, turn left onto PA 381 south for 11 miles to Ohiopyle.

***If you are not a biker, it is still a beautiful place to walk, hike or sightsee…***

Look forward to seeing all of you! Have a wonderful week and see you on Saturday!!! Looks like weather should be wonderful also!
