As we enter the Green phase of the COVID re-opening process, we are working on a variety of programs and events! These programs would not be possible without the generous support of our partners- Slatington Borough, the Borough of Walnutport, Washington Township and Northern Lehigh School District, as well as the Rotary Club of Slatington, the Leona Gruber Charitable Trust, Wildlands Conservancy, Northampton County, and the Mickley Fravel Charitable Trust.
Thank you all!
