Enjoy June in the Wissahickon, when Friends of the Wissahickon Trail Ambassadors are offering free hikes in Wissahickon Valley Park in Montgomery County.  Click Here for a schedule of walks and other events.

Bring your family and friends and help celebrate the Friends of the Wissahickon’s 90th anniversary on July 12 from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. at an old-fashioned family picnic at Pachella Field in Roxborough.

The picnic will feature traditional picnic fare, live music, picnic games, a nature hike in the park and a guest appearance by the Philly Phanatic from 3 to 4 p.m. We’ll also blow out the candles on a cake celebrating our 90th anniversary.

Tickets include all activities, food, beverages, beer and wine for adults and a commemorative 90th anniversary Mason jar mug. Ticket prices are $40 for adults, $15 for a child. A $100 family ticket will allow admittance for two adults and two children.

Help FOW finish lighting the candles on our 90th anniversary cake by purchasing a special family package:  a $190 ticket allows admission for two adults, two children and one candle on FOW’s 90th anniversary cake.

To purchase tickets, call Sarah Marley at 215- 247-0417, ext.109 or email her at: marley@fow.org.
