1956 LEWES GRANGE PICNIC AREA ON DUAL.


PICNIC AREA ESTABLISHED
ON
DUAL ROAD TO REHOBOTH & LEWES
1956


A new picnic ground on the dual highway leading into Rehoboth Beach and Lewes has
been laid out by the Henlopen Grange 20, of Lewes for motorist going to the resorts. One acre
of shady pine woodland was offered by two Grange members, the Misses Mamie and Arzie
Wilson, the owners.

A group of 12 Grangers have cleared off the picnic ground, set up tables and facilities
for use by the motoring public free of charge. The plot is located on the south bound lane
of the dual about half a mile south of Five Points intersection.

Two years ago a picnic area was set up by Sussex Garderners Club, two miles out of Rehoboth is now over taxed and the new area will be an extra stop over.

Both of these picnic areas will be maintained by the Garderners Club and the Grange.
