The inaugural Cape Henlopen State Park Tour de Friends Oct. 2 was one of the few events not canceled over the weekend due to rainy and windy conditions. It was a busy weekend for the Friends of Cape Henlopen State Park, who also had a wine, cheese and beer tasting Oct. 1.
Planned as an outdoor event, the Friends moved it into the Officer’s Club. A few brave cyclists took part in the family-fun scavenger hunt seeking out locations throughout the park. The event featured games, prizes, bike safety information, an after-party by Crooked Hammock and support from Sussex Cyclists.
