Item Description
Enjoy an outing in Washington County -- a visit in close proximity -- with trolleys, a trip to Meadowcroft to see the oldest archaeological findings in North America, to a meal at Breezy Heights and perhaps a stop here and there to see the many covered bridges in the County.
- Pennsylvania Trolley Museum - admission for one family (up to 2 adults & 4 children) during public hours. Through preservation and display, the Trolley Museum conveys to today’s public what the past was like and how important trolleys were to the day-to-day functioning of this area. Artifacts, photos and documents are some of the things that you’ll find displayed here. Take a scenic four-mile tour with a uniformed operator on a restored antique trolley. Tours begin on the hour. Extended "Behind the Scenes" tour of the Trib Total Media Trolley Display Building, for a more in-depth experience offered Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 1 pm is available for an additional fee. (Admissions passes are not valid during Bunny Trolley, Pumpkin Patch Trolley and Santa Trolley. Valid through December 15, 2015.)
- Meadowcroft Rockshelter and Historic Village - admission for four. Meadowcroft Rockshelter is the oldest site of human habitation in the United States, featuring a 16,000 year-old rock overhang used by our earliest ancestors for shelter. Bring family and friends to explore the natural preservation of our ancestors from thousands of years ago. It’s an unforgettable experience.
- Breezy Heights Tavern and Restaurant - $20 Gift Certificate. Breezy Heights was constructed in the 1920s as a General Store, it was converted to a Tavern in 1933 following the Repeal of Prohibition. It was purchased by the Esposto Family in 1954 and remains in the family. Casual family dining with lots of great menu items but known for its pressure fried "broasted chicken".
