About the Shyrock Bailey Connector
Welcome to Shyrock Bailey Connector, a serene park nestled in the heart of Pennsylvania 16335. This beautiful park is part of the French Creek Valley Conservancy, a private 501(c)3 accredited non-profit land trust. Our mission is to maintain and enhance the exceptional water quality, natural habitat, biological diversity, and recreational opportunities of the French Creek Watershed in Northwest Pennsylvania.
French Creek is nationally recognized as one of the most biologically important waterways in the country, hosting 27 species of native freshwater mussels and over 80 species of fish. It is a treasure trove of natural beauty and historical significance, offering wonderful recreational opportunities to all who visit.
Our work in land protection, stewardship, education, and community outreach is supported by our dedicated members, donors, and partners. Since 1992, we have been bringing together people who live, work, and play in the French Creek watershed for an annual Cleanup event. This event has grown into the largest day of stewardship in the watershed, with hundreds of volunteers participating and supporting our efforts to conserve the land.
Join us for the French Creek Cleanup 2024, where teams register for specific locations to collect trash, and then bring it to the Cambridge Springs Fairgrounds between 11am and 3pm for a weigh-in, collection, and picnic. Corporate teams compete for the coveted traveling Hellbender Trophy, while individuals, teams, schools, clubs, and organizations are entered into drawings for cash prizes. Schools with the most participants can win a cash prize for their science programs.
New this year, a limited supply of T-Shirts will be available for pickup at the picnic after 11am on a first-come-first-served basis. Since our humble beginnings, the Cleanup event has become FCVC’s largest fundraiser of the year, helping us to care for the land we’ve conserved for generations to come.
Visit Shyrock Bailey Connector and be a part of our mission to preserve the natural beauty and ecological significance of the French Creek Watershed. Together, we can make a difference for our environment and community.
