Location: Longwood Gardens, 1001 Longwood Road, Kennett Square, PA 19348

Agenda: See table below.

Cost: There is no registration fee for this event, but you must register to participate. On site, the first 30 registered AMWA-DVC members and their guests will receive a $35 Longwood Gardens gift card. Members of other AMWA chapters are welcome to participate, but they will not receive a gift card (unless they are the sole guest of an AMWA-DVC member). In addition to registering, everybody must purchase their own Longwood Gardens admission ticket (Adults $25; Senior 62+ $22).

Admission to Longwood Gardens: Longwood Gardens limits admission capacity and requires guests to make timed reservations. Thus, you should purchase your tickets ASAP for September 22, 2023, 5:00 pm admission. Go to the Longwood Gardens website and click on Tickets (located on the top right on a computer, bottom on a smartphone). Longwood Gardens ticket sales are not transferrable and all their sales are final.
