Help celebrate Yorklyn, and the new Auburn Valley State Park, at the third annual Yorklyn Day Festival.

The third annual Yorklyn Day Festival is sponsored by DNREC’s Division of Parks & Recreation, in partnership with the Center for Creative Arts, the Marshall Steam Museum, Yorklyn Pool, and Dew Point Brewing Co.

There will be activities in numerous areas, and for all ages. The Marshall Mansion and Marshall Steam Museum, in Auburn Valley State Park, will be open from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30, with steam car and miniature train rides, and mansion tours. Fees apply to all rides and the house tours.

DNREC staff will be on hand to discuss the progress on revitalization of the former NVF site, as well as the new Marshall Family Bridge, the first in a series of repurposed historic iron-truss bridges brought from all over the country to serve community trail users at Auburn Valley State Park.

Event parking is headquartered at H. B. Middle School, 735 Meeting House Road. School buses will transport visitors to and from the school to the event site every fifteen minutes, with smaller shuttle buses transporting throughout the activity areas. Handicapped parking on the event site is available at Yorklyn Bridge Trail, 1178 Yorklyn Road.

More information is available at YorklynDay.org, on the Yorklyn Day Facebook page, or by calling the Auburn Valley State Park office at 302.729.4280.
