Lancaster Conservancy leads Pequea Creek Cleanup
LANCASTER COUNTY, Pa. (WHTM) — It's Water Week in Lancaster.
The Lancaster Conservancy is hosting Water Week to promote the county's 1,400 miles of streams and rivers, including a creek cleanup at Sickman's Mill.
Volunteers floated down the Pequea Creek in tubes while cleaning up trash and debris along the way.
'This is definitely helpful if you're interested in exploring outside, protecting the waterways, or just learning more about nature,' said Ciana Suydam, the Manager of Tubing at Sickman's Mill. 'We have an employee who goes down with the use of. They can also tell you a little bit about the creek, things that you find, different insects, and animals.'
Sickman's Mill hosts creek cleanups every Wednesday throughout the summer.
