From Tuesday, June 14 to Thursday, June 16 the Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed Partnership (TTF) is hosting its annual Block Parties at Tacony Creek Park, a critical Philadelphia green space for neighbors in zip codes 19120 and 19124.

Block Party attendees will enjoy activities including a Story Trail walk, nature arts & crafts, bike rides in the park, and games with the Creekmobile (to learn about Tacony Creek and clean water issues) and will be able to access community resources, take home a recycling bin, and more!

Each day, artist Heidie Mojica will lead a guided walk incorporating the “Aqua Marooned!” card came and her own reflections on Tacony Creek park. Aqua Marooned! is an environmental game developed by Swim Pony specifically for Tacony Creek Park and other Alliance for Watershed Education Centers. The game encourages participants to creatively explore their natural surroundings using playful and engaging prompts. Participants will be able to take home their very own free Aqua Marooned! deck along with Tacony Creek and Lenni-Lenape Expansion Packs!

This event is FREE and all ages are welcome. All local, state, and federal guidelines for COVID-19 will be followed.
