Welcome On May 7th, 2011 members of WAAC and volunteers from the community, with support from area businesses, performed a stream cleanup on a section of the South Branch Conewago Creek. Stream cleanups have many benefits including: improving the health of the stream’s ecology and habitat; improving water quality; and increasing its overall aesthetics and physical beauty. They even provide an economic benefit by improving the general characteristics of the community.
