Hop Into Easter With Pennypacker Mills

Victorian celebration planned for families this weekend.

With just a week to go until the holiday weekend, the county is gearing up for a visit from the Easter Bunny a little early.

A celebration of Victorian times will be highlighted at the historic property known as Pennypacker Mills in Schwenksville.

"Spend an afternoon creating Easter crafts that will be especially fun and oh so Victorian on Saturday, March 23 at Pennypacker Mills," said a recent release by Montgomery County Director of Communications Frank Custer. "Using creative vintage-inspired materials, participants will create cool, kid-friendly crafts that will make the Easter holiday even more special by adding a personal touch."
