Columbia Crossing to host "Harnessing the Wind" this coming Saturday



Susquehanna Saturday: Harnessing the Wind 
10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with family friendly programming for all ages. Suggested donation of $2

41 Walnut Street, Columbia, Pennsylvania 17512

Susquehanna Saturdays present fun hands-on activities for all ages on a variety of topics that explore nature, history, and culture. March's theme -- “Harnessing the Wind” – explores how wind is a force that can cause movement, motion, and power, and how to use this force in our everyday lives. Create a sailboat, make something fly high into the air, and discover how a turbine moves and uses wind to create energy with LCSWMA. This program is sponsored by Lancaster County Solid Waste Management Authority. This hands-on educational program is available anytime between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., while supplies last. 


All Susquehanna Saturdays are free for all ages, but a suggested donation of $2 per participant is appreciated. Proceeds benefit the operations and programs of the Columbia Crossing River Trails Center and Susquehanna Heritage. Columbia Crossing is at 41 Walnut Street, Columbia, PA 17512.

Reminder: When shoveling your driveway, clear snow away from fire hydrants


Clear a path from the hydrant into the street. Also, clear a margin of about three feet all around the hydrant, so firefighters have enough room to work.
