    Join us this spring on a visit to the world renowned American architect Frank Lloyd Wright's home in Bear Run, Pennsylvania. This house is an outstanding example of Wright's idea of "organic architecture, and was built over a rushing mountain waterfall. The tour will include the inside of this famous house as well as the beautifully wooded grounds surrounding it. Be sure to wear comfortable walking shoes.

    You can either bring your own lunch to eat on the grounds or you can buy lunch at the Fallingwater Café in the Visitor's Pavilion. The food in the café is self-serve, and everything is made fresh from local organically grown products.

    The trip takes approximately 4 hours, which will allow you plenty of time to visit with your friends, nap, read, or watch the scenery. The 2 ½ hour tour of the house and grounds is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. and interpreters will be provided for the tour. Departure for Frederick and Silver Spring will be at 4:30 p.m., with a stop-over for dinner at the Hagerstown Outlet Center. The bus will arrive back at the Senior Center at approximately 10:00 p.m.

    Registration must be received by March 23 to secure the charter bus. Limited to 34 individuals.
