Creating The East Coast Greenway Lecture Rescheduled For Dec. 5

The Friends of the Wissahickon’s popular lecture series, Valley Talks, sponsored by Valley Green Bank, will feature Andy Hamilton of the East Coast Greenway Alliance, who will discuss this revolutionary trail system and how it enhances local communities and the region at large, on December 5.

This lecture was originally scheduled for November 7 and was postponed due to storms in the area.

The lecture will begin at 6:00 p.m. at Valley Green Inn and is free and open to the public

Hamilton is the Mid-Atlantic Trail Coordinator for the East Coast Greenway Alliance, a long- distance, urban, shared-use trail system, that links 25 major cities along the eastern seaboard.

He will consider the benefits to public health that access to active transportation and natural and cultural experiences provides to the millions of Americans that use the East Coast Greenway on bicycle and foot.

He has spent almost two decades working in landscape architecture at Carter Van Dyke Associates, enriching spaces such as the greenways or linear park segments.

Valley Green Inn is located on Forbidden Drive in Wissahickon Valley Park. Register for this event by sending email Sarah Marley to: marley@fow.org or 215-247-0414 ext. 109. Spaces are limited.
