Join the League of Women Voters of Delaware County ILO for a private tour of the historic Thunderbird Lodge on Saturday, November 7, 2026 from 10:30 AM to 1:00 PM located at 41 Rose Valley Rd, Media PA 

See an historic and architectural wonder – The Thunderbird Lodge - in Delco’s Rose Valley. Learn about this arts and crafts landmark and gathering place of Utopian and progressive thinkers. 

The Thunderbird Lodge later became the home of the Olmsteds.

Her husband, Allen S. Olmsted, II was Judge of the Court of Common Pleas and the founder of the American Civil Liberties Union. He prepared the petition for the incorporation of Rose Valley Borough in 1923.

A private tour will be followed by a light lunch featuring a WaWa hoagie or WaWa salad. The cost of $25.00 includes the tour and lunch.
