Details

More details to come, but here's some basic info in the meantime.

  • [Optional] Carpool from the Target Parking lot in Westchester Commons
  • Abandoned manor, its very interesting story which is here.
  • Buy your ticket here. You MUST buy a ticket from the EventBrite app in order to attend this event.
  • All proceeds go to the Dunnington Mansion Foundation, which is dedicated to its restoration.
  • Tour is hosted by John Plashal, local photographer and abandoned places historian
  • The Hiking + Photography group is not hosting or facilitating this event. I am only arranging the carpool, and inviting my group members to attend this event.
  • A great opportunity to capture this historic mansion which is in a sad but beautiful state of disrepair.
  • Photos of this estate can be found here.
  • The lighting at this time of day will be mostly golden hour.
  • Read the description of the event for details about what to bring and what to wear.
  • If you opt to go with the carpool, arrive at the parking lot at 1:45 and we will leave by 1:55.
  • Drones are welcome, as long as you are respectful of other attendees and know the rules. Please have a TRUST license or Part 107 certificate with you at all times when flying your drone.

There is a question about whether the doors open at 3pm or 3:30pm, so as soon as we confirm this I will update the time/description as needed.

The carpool starts and ends in the Target Parking Lot in Westchester Commons. This is totally optional, and please post in the comments if you will be joining the carpool. Otherwise feel free to drive directly to the event, there is plenty of parking available. The drive is about an hour from the Target, each way, so it will be nice to have company on the drive there and back!
