CANCELLED: Watershed Clean-up: Minnehaha Creek

Our host in Glen Echo are postponing the Minnehaha Creek Clean up due to an upstream pipe that has broken and is resulting in water flowing into the creek. They will reschedule the clean up. Check our events calendar for updates.

Every fall, LFWA joins forces with the Westmoreland Hills Garden Club, the Town of Glen Echo and other area groups to clean the whole watershed. This first event is at Glen Echo. The other clean-ups are scheduled for next week.
