Starting at the Market and South Streets in Frederick, virtually head south on Market street to pass Lincoln Elementary, the home of FSRC’s very own Lincoln Panther Program (an MSM beneficiary), then follow Center and South back to Market Street, past our other beneficiary City Youth Matrix at 22 S Market, then continue up Market Street past the YMCA to the Utica Covered Bridge (1850) in Thurmont. It’s not too far to the Loys Station Covered Bridge (1880) and a quick jog to Roddy Road Covered Bridge (1856), and then on up to Pennsylvania.
