Students Receive Recognition for Their Work on Community Rain Garden
Representative Ryan Costello recognized Perkiomen Valley High School Key Club students last week for their work on the Perkiomen Township rain garden project. MCCD worked with the students to create the landscaping plan for the garden, and then to plant almost 800 native species during three volunteer workdays.
The students were presented with a Schuylkill Scholastic Drinking Water award by the EPA and Schuylkill Action Network. Work is ongoing to make the rain garden an outdoor classroom space, which will include educational signage.
