NOT-TO-MISS
SEEING
INSPIRATION
2ND STOP:
KENTUCK KNOB 15 minute drive from Fallingwater® Nearly 20 years after the completion of Fallingwater, Frank Lloyd Wright designed another home in the Laurel Highlands, this time for the owners of Hagan Ice Cream®. Kentuck Knob is a stunning example of Wright’s Usonian homes, which were designed to bring Wright’s organic architecture to a broader American audience. The grounds feature 30 pieces of sculptures in addition to the view overlooking the Youghiogheny River Gorge.
TAKE A TOUR 3RD STOP:
DUNCAN HOUSE AT POLYMATH PARK 45 minute drive from Kentuck Knob Make it an overnight stay or an evening out with Wright-inspired dining. The Duncan House is one of only seven Frank Lloyd Wright homes world-wide available for overnight stays. The home originally stood over 600 miles away in Lisle, Illinois, but was saved and rebuilt at Polymath Park, where it joined two other homes designed by one of Wright’s apprentices, Peter Berndston. Dine at Tree Tops Restaurant, another Wright-influenced facility at Polymath Park, where nature plays a big role in the space. Enjoy a fantastic meal while taking in the view among the treetops. LEARN MORE ABOUT LOCAL WRIGHT HOMES:
THE WRIGHT WAY THE VISION OF FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT The connection to the landscape that can be seen in Frank Lloyd Wright’s organic architecture compels visitors to strive for their own symbiotic relationship with nature. While a tour of each cannot be fit into a single day, their proximity is a terrific trip opportunity.
1ST STOP: FALLINGWATER® Fallingwater was commissioned by the Kaufmann family, the wealthy owners of Kaufmann’s Department Stores. The Kaufmanns and Wright shared a mutual love of nature, and he made their beloved waterfall part of the design. Wright’s inspiring blend of architecture and nature is what makes this home a true work of art, both inside and out. If you don’t have time for a full house tour, you can still enjoy the landscape that inspired Wright with a grounds pass. Reservations are required.

FUN FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY
Do you know what it takes to be a 6-time Super Bowl Champion? Well, the kids are about to find out! The Steelers Experience, a kid-friendly program, takes place during afternoon open practice days, for an hour before practice and an hour after, at a field adjacent to practice. Coaches, players, and other team staff lead the kids in practice sessions that give them a little taste of their own training camp. Tip: Bring a sharpie and your camera! You just might get an autograph or snap a photo of the kids with a player. MAKE IT A PICNIC
Pack a lunch and snacks for the afternoon. Alcohol and barbeque grills are not permitted. Saint Vincent College also provides typical game-day fare, so grab a hot dog, nachos, or ice cream. Tip: Bring Cash! While there is an ATM on campus, not all stands accept credit cards. FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS
There’s nothing quite like catching a classic Friday night practice at the Latrobe Memorial Stadium. Night practice is usually held the first Friday night of camp. BOOK YOUR STAY
Make your plans early! Steelers Nation comes from far from far and wide to catch a practice, and rooms go fast!
WELCOME,
STEELERS FANS! Watch the team get ready for another great season. The Steelers have held an open training camp at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe for more than 50 years, a timehonored tradition. Watch your favorite players practice on Chuck Noll Field. No matter where you sit, you’re sure to get a great view of the field and all the action. From move-in day to final practice, the Laurel Highlands is covered in black and gold. From the end of July to late August, catch open practices, one of the night practices, and more Steelers-filled action. The public is generally permitted to access the campus at 1:30pm and practice usually lasts from 3pm to 5pm.
