CANCELLED: Sunday Volunteer Service Day with David Bower and FOCT

Sunday, February 16, 2025 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

This service day has been cancelled due to the forecasted rain. Stay dry, folks.

Our meeting location location is a few blocks walking distance from available street parking options.
Please note there are no restrooms in the vicinity. 

Would you like to be part of keeping Wissahickon Valley Park beautiful and sustainable? Then join longtime Wissahickon steward David Bower, his dedicated team of Crew Leaders and Trail Ambassadors, and our partners at Friends of the Cresheim Trail for a variety of stewardship projects!

All are welcome to attend, and no experience is needed. We encourage attendees to work within their own comfort level, and we always strive to accommodate needs on an individual basis. With that being said, this service day may include the following activities:
• Plantings: bending over, crouching/squatting, carrying up to 20 lbs
• Invasive plant removal: bending over, using long handled tools
• Litter clean-up
• Graffiti removal
• Repetitive motions

We provide gloves, tools, and instruction–you just need to show up! Be sure to wear sturdy footwear and long pants, and remember to bring water with you. Detailed information and confirmation of the meeting location will be sent by email the day before the event. If you are hoping to bring a group of 5 or more people, please reach out to us first. For more information contact Marisa Miller at miller@fow.org.
