FOW’s 100 Years of Wild Celebration

We are thrilled to announce Friends of the Wissahickon’s 100 Years of Wild Gala in honor of our 100th Anniversary. This momentous event will be held on November 8th, 2024 at The Pump House, a brand new event location at the Ironworks at Pencoyd Landing, Bala Cynwyd. This space is home to Top Chef Winner and James Beard Award Finalist Chef Nicholas Elmi’s Lark and The Landing Kitchen.

Please join us for what is sure to be a memorable evening as we honor individuals whose dedication has been integral to the success of Friends of the Wissahickon:

Wissahickon Award – Given only six times in the history of our organization, Christine Bamberger will be honored for her extraordinary service to the park with the Wissahickon Award.

Founders Award – Linda and David Glickstein will be honored with the second Founders Award ever given, for their outstanding commitment to increasing Friends of the Wissahickon’s capacity for stewardship in the park.

Transformational Partner Award – Keisha and Tarsha Scovens, founders of Let’s Go Outdoors, will be honored with a new award, the Transformational Partner Award, to celebrate the success of our longtime collaboration in service to a more inclusive and welcoming Wissahickon Valley Park.
