CCWA brings numerous conservation-related organizations from public, non-profit, and private sectors together, along with activities for kids, food, ice cream and music, for a family-friendly experience.
In collaboration with the Lancaster County Conservation District, CCWA provides an opportunity for kids to get into the stream and learn about the little creatures and other features that make the riparian zone a living ecosystem.
A series of events throughout the year where small groups to get to know some of the publicly-accessible jewels within the watershed that are near streams, creeks, waterways, and riparian planted areas. A learning event, but also a pleasant stroll or hike across all seasons.
We bring our display to various events hosted by other organizations to make connections and provide information about the Chiques Creek watershed.
Our display is up for a week at the Manheim Farm Show, with several volunteers staffing the display and visiting with folks in the late afternoons and evenings. Great time for deep discussions with our neighbors - and some fun, too.
We'll be glad to bring a presentation to your school, club, or meeting! Just reach out to us:
