At ECRR, we are always pleased to share news of successful events by watershed groups throughout the region. Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor had a cleanup of invasive plants and weeds from in and around Lock 4 of the Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor. Some two dozen volunteers participated in the effort to beautify an area that includes a memorial observation deck that overlooks the Lehigh River.
By bringing together members of the Delaware & Lehigh Trail Tenders, some local foster care youth, and Lehighton Boy Scout Troop 82 we were able to put a huge dent into a neglected portion of the Weissport Canal Trail. In the space of five hours the two dozen or so participants at this community activity accomplished the first phase of an ongoing project to restore and maintain the landscape around Lock 4. Lock 4 is located approximately 2 1/2 mile north of the Weissport Trailhead in Lehighton.
