Please Make a Special Year-End Contribution to the Friends
To help the Friends fund more projects, advocate on the local, state, and federal levels, support volunteers, teach, innovate, and embrace new opportunities, we ask you to include the Friends in your year-end giving.
Last year, the authentic camelback bridge in Yardley, Sommer’s Bridge, was closed for much-needed repairs. With generous support from our donors, the Friends provided the funds to complete the repairs, and the bridge was reopened.
This year, we repurposed the concession building adjacent to the Locktender’s House in New Hope into an exhibit space. The current exhibit, “Rediscovering the Towpath,” focuses on William Francis Taylor, one of the early advocates for the Canal. Our next major project will be the restoration of Spahr’s Bridge in Upper Black Eddy.
Our members and volunteers help make the Friends a strong, vibrant, and influential organization. As we bid 2023 farewell, we thank you for your continuing support and ask you to invest in the work ahead by making a special contribution.
Happy Holidays! We look forward to another productive year.
