Saturday morning/afternoon, October 15th: For those who are not golfing, you are on your own to explore local attractions. There are so many wonderful things to do in the vicinity of Mendenhall, and fall in Chester County is simply radiant. We guarantee you won’t be bored!
Here's a short list we've put together:
Some of you might enjoy spending the day wandering around Kennett Square (the mushroom capitol of the USA) or West Chester. They both have nice restaurants for lunch and are both famous for being very charming, quaint Chester County towns.
