	Organizing 4 or 5 hikes a year
	Working toward greenspace land acquisition
	Abandoned Mine Drainage treatment site on the Scrubgrass Run tributary of Chartiers Creek

Conservation

	Helping to erect an Historic Marker on the site of the Bower Hill Mansion on Kane Boulevard
	Joining with the Mt. Lebanon Nature Conservancy in the planning and maintaining of the Traffic Islands at the intersection of Cochran and Greentree Roads

Please support the conservancy in its work for the community with a membership, donation or by volunteer efforts. The conservancy is a non-profit organization with no paid employees. We need your support to maintain the Kane Woods Nature Area for public use and to continue to beautify the traffic island at the corner of Cochran and Greentree Roads for the community.
