3 16 Welcome to Canal Day the 27th annual! 1 Today is a celebration of people and what they can accomplish when they work together. It s not an individual, giant corporation or government agency running Canal Day. It is the work of a group of volunteers that make this day and place special. Thirty years ago, the Schuylkill Canal Park did not exist. It was an overgrown area that was often used as a dump. The government wanted to fill in the canal while area residents wanted it to become a park. Thankfully the Schuylkill Canal Association was created to preserve this section of the canal and prevented its destruction. Canal Day is SCA s biggest fundraiser each year and the money generated at this event helps fund the good work of the Association. The Schuylkill Canal Association thanks our sponsors, Exelon Power, Cromby Generating Station and Phoenixville Federal Bank & Trust, as well as all those listed on page 5, who have given generously to make this day happen. Their support enables SCA to provide a day full of fun while highlighting the park and all it has to offer. SCA depends on your support too. If you use the park to fish, boat, walk, run or hike, walk your dog, or to enjoy the natural environment, you benefit from the hard work SCA volunteers; including Upper Providence Township and Montgomery County s Park & Heritage Services, put into maintaining this park. Become a member, support the SCA and get involved by being a part of its preservation and its recreation with all there is to do along the Schuylkill Canal. My thanks and appreciation to all the volunteers and our guests; enjoy Canal Day 2009! Strickland Kneass, Chair, Canal Day 2009

It is one of only two remaining watered sections of the Schuylkill Navigation constructed along the river in the early 19th century. And it is the only one that has a fully operational lock within the entire Schuylkill River Valley. SCA depends on the support and generosity of its local community to maintain the area. We welcome new members and are always looking for a helping hand to maintain and operate this beautiful park.
