About this event
Join us on Saturday, October 11th, as PCA Chesapeake conducts its 14th tour of the season developed by our guest tour master, Ron Farb, where we will return to the Alleghany Mountains. The tour begins in Middletown, MD, and quickly makes its way north to the MD/PA border. We then skirt the border as we head west towards Hancock, MD, and our rest stop. After the break, we hop back on some fantastic roads along with great scenery as we travel north through the Alleghany Mountains and then we will drive south on the amazing PA-26. Our destination will be at the Locust Post Brewery for an optional lunch.
The optional lunch will be at the locally owned Locust Post Brewery. This brewery was recently built by Tony & Denise Cromwell on their 26-acre farmstead, and their home is literally walking distance to it. They have been extremely accommodating and will have a reserved section of parking for us on the grass. They serve bar food for lunch including pizza, taquitos, and chicken bites.
For more on the Locust Post Brewery and their menu, see their website; https://locustpostbrewery.com/.
Given their limited pizza ovens and the normal crowds, they get on a Saturday, Locust Post Brewery would like for us to give them an idea of how many pizzas we want so that they can bake a few before we arrive and have them ready. Therefore, if you think you will order the pizza, please indicate so when you sign up on MSR. You are not obligated to buy a pizza even if you check the box. You will not be charged for the pizza when you register, rather this is so they can prepare for us. You can order a different pizza or something else from their menu when you arrive, as well as pay for your pre-ordered pizza.
Upon leaving the brewery, your GPS will have you take a right on National Pike to get back to I-68. However, take a left instead and drive about a mile to the Town Hill overlook on your left. There is parking and the view is spectacular! P.S. The Town Hill Bed & Breakfast across the street is supposed to be excellent if you want to spend the night in this area.
