WARNING [8/3/22] New Strainer Hazard at Kelly's Rapids (river mile 79.8): a tree has fallen into the upper third of the Class II+ rapid on RR, causing a hazardous strainer in the swift current.

🌎💚 We’ll be celebrating the 50th Anniversary of #EarthDay on April 22, 2020. But celebrating the Earth and protecting its resources is something we can do 365 days of the year. Protect natural resources like the Schuylkill River by making a commitment to clean up 🚮 your neighborhood or local trails. Removing litter from the ground not only helps to beautify the area, but also keeps those items from ending up in local water sources. Take a photo and share it with us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter (@SchuylkillRiverGreenways). For more ways on how to celebrate #EarthDay2020, visit SchuylkillRiver.org/EarthDay2020.
