Three community groups are looking for volunteers – some on specific dates, and others with more flexible time commitments.
Friends of Pennypack Park will hold its monthly cleanup tomorrow, weather permitting, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Volunteers are asked to go to the Delaware recreation area on State Road, just below Rhawn Street along the river. If you’re going, wear long pants and closed shoes. The group will supply gloves, grabbers, bags and refreshments. You can call 215-934-PARK for information, or to see if the cleanup is canceled.
The Tacony Civic Association is looking for volunteers for various activities throughout the year. Particularly, high school and college students in need of community service hours are welcome. You can contact the group at taconycivic@gmail.com.
St. Cecilia’s Home & School Association is seeking demonstrators from companies like Avon, Southern Living, Princess House and others to participate in a Demonstration Day on Oct. 4. Those interested can contact Joann at 215-342-6969,
