2016 Earth Day Clean-Up
Lend the SCA a helping hand with some basic sprucing up along the Schuylkill Canal Park area
throughout Mont Clare and Port Providence, Upper Providence Township. Volunteers should
meet at the lower end / foot of the canal in Port Providence by 9:00 a.m. and sign in (black truck in the trail-head parking lot.) The clean-up will be concentrated in that area; trail clearing, tire collection, fallen tree removal and litter pick-up.
Volunteer an hour or two or stay the entire
day. Whatever amount of time you can offer is greatly appreciated. Volunteers only need to
bring a willingness to work. The SCA will provide gloves, trash bags and all other materials.
A steady downpour of rain at 8:00 a.m. cancels the clean-up. The rain date for this event is the next day, Sunday, April 27, 2014. The SCA is a registered participant in the Great PA CleanUp sponsored by Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful.
We have our work cut out for us. If you are a local company or a community service organization that can offer a volunteer labor force, please contact us.
For more information and to sign up to volunteer, contact the SCA at (610) 917-0021 or via email at
