IRON TOUR
Thank you for your support of the
2020 Iron Tour:
FORGE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE!
Each year, 1,000 people anticipate French & Pickering’s French Creek Iron Tour. Their reasons include love of northern Chester County’s open space, community-building and family connection, support for French & Pickering, and personal health goals.
Because of how the Iron Tour satisfies that anticipation, helps a good cause, and
in honor of co-founder Eleanor Morris Illoway’s indomitable spirit,
we felt it imperative to “forge” ahead!
The Iron Tour Committee is continuing to work very hard
to reschedule the ride to later this year. A decision will be announced in early September.
Thank You to our Sponsors!
