Our Signature Public Events
Each year, Greenway volunteers are heavily involved in community-wide events to celebrate and steward the trail.
LIGHTING OF THE GREENWAY
In mid-December, we tag-team with other community partners to create a beautiful, accessible, family-friendly holiday lighting event to celebrate the winter season.
GRANNY GREENWAY
Certified educator Nancy Fish hosts guided field trips and outreach programs for preschool and elementary grade levels along the trail. She offers a free story time & activity for the community on Saturdays once a month at the Nature Pavilion as "Granny Greenway."
CATAWBA RIVERSWEEP
In early October, we engage as many volunteers as we can for the annual Catawba Riversweep. This is a regional effort designed by the Catawba Riverkeeper Foundation to clean up our shared waterways.
MONTHLY TRAIL WORKDAYS
Volunteers supplement the City of Lancaster's maintenance efforts for two hours of stewardship. Typically, volunteers meet in the parking lot of the LHS Visitor Lot on the first Monday each month at 9 am. Then, we meet-up at the Daily Grind coffee shop on Main Street at 11 am. Join us!
