Hidden history - Northeast Times
Walking through a stretch of Pennypack Park tucked away between Holmesburg and Frankford avenues, Jason Sherman is devastated to see a forked sycamore tree has been damaged by a fallen trunk. "Someone's gotta fight for those trees," he mutters as we hike back up the slope back to the trail, twigs and rotting leaves crunching under our feet.

Playing the music and serving as Emcee, didn’t get to take the number of pics I wanted, but these two capture what today’s Bridesburg Pool Ceremony was all about: the people we serve (the children) and the people who serve them (our lifeguards and pool staff). Here, LG I Sophia Heck speaks about what the old pool has meant to her. She did a fantastic job conveying the feelings all were experiencing. Kudos to all who made today’s ceremony a one of a kind event! Feel free to tag and share
