She’ll also have a few framed images of other animals that inhabit the Parklands. She’ll share the story of how scientist, Rachel Carson- in her book Silent Spring, published in1962, saved the American Bald Eagle from extinction due to exposure to DDT and giving rise to the science of ecology and Earth Day... and how efforts of other conservationists and ecologists brought the eagle populations back from near extinction. Without the hard work of Rachel Carson and others through conservation efforts, our national symbol would be lost forever and we would not enjoy seeing the American Bald Eagle in the Wyomissing Parklands. #EarthDay2024 #EarthDay #GreenLiving #AGreenLearningExperience #GoGreen #AmericanBaldEagle #Eagle #RachelCarson #ThingsToDoInWyomissing #WyomissingREC #WyomissingGuide #WYOParks_Rec #WyomissingPA

EVENT GUIDELINES: Bring Your Own Basket: Each child should come prepared with their own basket. Arrive Early: Please arrive at least ten minutes before your scheduled age group start time. Age Groups: Participate in the appropriate age group as outlined. Play Nicely: Remind your child that pushing or rough-housing won't be tolerated.

"... Spring Has Sprung" - at least it feels like it. The early bloomers are already popping up along the Wyomissing Creek trails in the Parklands. Milky white snowdrops with their heady, honey fragrance and saffron yellow winter aconite are among just a few of the first flowers to emerge from winter soil and will bloom from February through April. Both snowdrops and aconite have an unquestionable beauty about them, but they are not just a pretty face. Both flowers play an essential role for wildlife emerging from winter hibernation and dormancy. A wide variety of pollinators, bumblebees, honeybees, flies and early butterflies emerge to head straight for their favorite spring flower. The nectar from these late winter/early spring flowers provides wildlife their first nourishment. Be sure to get out and enjoy what nature has to offer.

Come join us in commemorating the fifty-first annual Wyomissing Trout Fishing Rodeo! Since its inception in 1973, this time-honored tradition has marked the arrival of spring and provided the Wyomissing youth with an opportunity to jump into the world of fishing along the picturesque Wyomissing Creek. Joseph A. Miller played a pivotal role in establishing the 8 to 80 Wyomissing Fishing Club, the driving force behind the start of the annual Trout Fishing Rodeo. There will be drawings for the "Joseph A. Miller Participation Prizes," exclusively for registered anglers. Our friends from TCO Fly Fishing will be giving a free fly fishing clinic for children on Friday evening beginning at 5 PM at the Wall. This event is particularly special for the youth of our community! It's a fantastic opportunity for kids under the age of 15 to embrace the joy of fishing. Mark your calendars for the Trout Fishing Rodeo on Saturday, May 11th. Registration kicks off at 8:30 AM, followed by the commencement of fishing at 9:00 AM. The awards ceremony is set for 11:30 AM. We'll be gathering at the Stone House Lawn, alongside the Wyomissing Creek. Don't miss this chance for our young anglers to make memories, reel in some great catches, and have a shot at fantastic prizes!
