Friday, June 28: Volunteer Stewardship Project, 9:00am – 12:30pm, meet at Pocono Environmental Education Center (PEEC), Dingman’s Ferry, PA

Join Leave No Trace, and park rangers for a unique and meaningful volunteer opportunity. This volunteer project involves the removal of an abandoned PVC (plastic) water line within the Camp Hidden Falls section property.
