Autumn in Bucks County is MCC's First Day Trip of the Season 10/21
American writer Pearl S. Buck, whose novel The Good Earth won both the Pulitzer Prize (1932) and the Nobel Prize for Literature (1938) was an inspiration to many.

The price of the trip is $145 per person, $135 for McLean tax district residents, which includes deluxe motor coach transportation, admission to Pearl S.
