State of the River Trail … Next Week

Volunteers who examined the Schuylkill River Trail through Conshohocken will present their findings next week.

The group walked the Schuylkill River Trail to experience the river, trail and towns through the eyes of a visitor and will present their assessment on Tuesday, Oct. 8 at Conshohocken Borough Hall.

The event was the kickoff of the Schuylkill River Town Program in Conshohocken, a two-year initiative funded by the William Penn Foundation and managed by the Pennsylvania Environmental Council to build stewardship of the Schuylkill River and adjacent trail through education and engagement.

The project focuses on the roughly 26 miles of trail and river, stretching from Phoenixville to Manayunk; partnering with towns located along its banks including Phoenixville, Norristown, Conshohocken and Manayunk.

The meeting begins at 7 p.m.; Conshohocken Borough Hall is located in the corner of Fayette Street and Eighth Avenue.
