Lengthy Boardwalk Completed

This beautifully crafted 60ft boardwalk on the Mill Race Trail leads hikers to the loop along the White Clay Creek. Eagle Scout candidate Wesley Schwarz designed and built the boardwalk during August 2011 with the help and his Boy Scout Troop 53 of Kennett Square. The springtime Shunk Cabbage (Symplocarpus foetidus) can now be easily and enjoyably traversed.

The boardwalk weathered the flooding during Hurricane Irene (shown above, the photo at the top was taken after the storm), a testament to its quality construction. The White Clay Creek overflows its banks and washes over parts of the Mill Race Trail during moderate and severe flooding.
