Annual Creek Cleanups

Since 2006, the Newtown Creek Coalition has been organizing annual clean-ups along Newtown Creek.

Cleanup | May 2024

“A spring cleanup, organized by the Newtown Creek Coalition, focused on a portion of the creek (behind Penn Community Bank) that flows in and around a series of stone abutments that once supported a trolley bridge over the creek.

Veteran creek volunteers, including Councilwoman Julia Woldorf, creek coalition president Mike Sellers and the borough’s tree advocate, Ted Schmidt, were joined by former councilwoman Nicole Rodowicz, several Council Rock students and others in helping with the effort.”
