The Transformation of Westover Park

February 11, 2018 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EST

Presented by Bird Town Committee


Westover Bird Sanctuary is a 6.7-acre undeveloped tract between Conestoga and Old Lancaster Roads in Tredyffrin Township. Bird Town enthusiasts Michele Hawk, Mary Westervelt, and Phil and Bonnie Witmer have been leading the volunteer effort to reclaim the property by removing invasive plants (and trash), replanting with native plants, and providing paths and signage to welcome and educate visitors. Come learn about the history of this property, from the reworks explosion in 1930 that ended its commercial use, to the current effort to reclaim the property as a bird sanctuary. Each Bird Town volunteer will speak about different parts of the process and will leave time for questions.


Free of charge; all are welcome. No pre-registration required.
