Road, Elizabethtown Local Watershed Group Sponsors Conewago Earth Day CelebrationThe public is invited to celebrate Earth Day at historic mill on Conewago Creek.ELIZABETHTOWN – Tri-County Conewago Creek Association will sponsor the first ever “Conewago Earth Day Celebration” on the banks of the Conewago Creek at Aberdeen Mills, a historic mill and farmstead outside of Elizabethtown, on Saturday, April 18 from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm. The public is invited to attend. The event will take place rain or shine. “Our Earth Day Celebration will be a fun morning for the entire family,” said Matt Royer, president of TCCCA. “Everyone has a role to play in cleaning our local streams. We’ll offer practical and easy tips on living healthy and being good stewards of the earth.” Merritt and Katcha Neale, owners of Aberdeen and local sustainable agriculture producers, are graciously hosting the event. Information about buying locally grown foods and tips on how to protect clean water through native landscaping and gardening at home will be provided. A number of fun outdoor activities are also planned. Volunteers can help monitor the Conewago to evaluate its health, take a guided wildflower walk through the woods, or help start a native tree nursery by potting seedlings. Drinks and snacks will be on hand and each family in attendance can take home a free tree. Partnering with TCCCA to offer the morning’s events will be staff from Dauphin County Conservation District, Elizabethtown College, and Davis Florist and Garden Center.
