Spanning 2,000 acres with more than 50 miles of trails, Wissahickon Valley Park in northwest Philadelphia offers a variety of recreational opportunities, from hiking and biking to bird watching and picnicking.

We are a professor of history who co-authored a book on the Wissahickon Valley and an assistant professor of biology. We teach students at Chestnut Hill College, which sits directly across the street from this lush urban park, about the environmental history of the Wissahickon forest and the importance of preserving its biodiversity. We’re also developing a documentary on the Wissahickon funded by the Sisters of Saint Joseph.

We want our students – and all Philadelphians – to understand the importance of protecting this urban ecosystem as a way to build climate resilience.

Like many of the country’s other great urban parks – from Central Park in New York or Rock Creek Park in Washington to the smaller Phalen Park in St. Paul, Minnesota – the Wissahickon lowers the city’s temperatures, reduces its carbon footprint, protects the water supply and mitigates floods. And, it remains an active arena for community building and engagement, which further increases Philadelphia’s resilience to climate change.

The Mountain Lakes Lakers are taking a road trip to square off against the Boonton Bombers on Friday. Both are strolling into their contests after big wins in their previous games.

Mountain Lakes took a loss when they played away from home last Friday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Friday. Everything went their way against Lenape Valley as Mountain Lakes made off with a 27-6 win. The victory was some much needed relief for the Lakers as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Boonton). They put the hurt on Hopatcong with a sharp 42-18 win on Friday. Considering the Bombers have won three games by more than 20 points this season, Friday’s blowout was nothing new.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Boonton to victory, but perhaps none more so than Sylas White, who rushed for 143 yards and two touchdowns on only 14 carries. White is on a roll when it comes to rushing touchdowns, as he’s now punched in two or more in the last four games he’s played dating back to last season. Drew Cabalar was another key player, rushing for 102 yards and three touchdowns on only 13 carries.

He was just one part of a punishing run game: Boonton was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 353 rushing yards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they’ve now rushed for at least 195 rushing yards in seven consecutive matches dating back to last season.

Mountain Lakes’ first…

A big part of Cedar Grove’s win came down to the chemistry between Stephen Paradiso and his top target Jackson Morrice. Paradiso threw for 342 yards and four touchdowns while completing 73.1% of his passes while Morrice gained 180 total yards and three touchdowns. Morrice was no stranger to the big play, connecting on a big catch that went for 57 yards.

Cedar Grove pushed their record up to 4-0 with the victory, which was their fifth straight on the road dating back to last season. As for Madison, they are on a four-game losing streak (dating back to last season) that has dropped them down to 0-3.

Cedar Grove will challenge Newark Collegiate Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Cedar Grove is facing Newark Collegiate Academy at the right time seeing as Newark Collegiate Academy is stuck on a three-game losing streak. As for Madison, they are taking a road trip to face off against Lenape Valley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Galloway, N.J. – “Indigenous people are more than just what you read about in your false and colonial history books or a concept of the past. In 2024, we are contemporary.”

This and more gems of wisdom were dropped by Indigenous artist Denise “Bright Dove” Ashton-Dunkley during Sept. 17’s Artist Talk & Workshop in the Stockton University Art Gallery.

Ashton-Dunkley of the Nanticoke/Lenni-Lenape Tribal Nation is one of more than 25 local and international artists featured in the new two-floor exhibition, “Indigenous Approaches, Sustainable Futures.” She and fellow tribe member Tyrese “Bright Flower” Gould Jacinto and Jeremy Dennis of the Shinnecock Indian Nation led participants on a tour of the exhibition and talked about the inspiration behind their featured works. 

According to Ashton-Dunkley, her piece, “Land Back,” is meant to challenge the viewer to acknowledge and consider the concepts of land reclamation and the significance of Indigenous traditional and ecological knowledge, especially as the world reckons with the current climate crisis.

“We hold this knowledge, and we’ve always been willing to share it. There’s no need to try to continue erasing us via MMIW (Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women), genocide or forced sterilization,” Ashton-Dunkley said. “It all comes down to you voting, finding out what these politicians stand for and holding them accountable to their promises. Help us with your voice and steward these lands.”

Gould Jacinto’s gourd art is visually striking; lights reflect off of the colorful beads that adorn the painted gourds, creating rainbow shadows on the gallery’s walls and floors. Gould Jacinto explained that each piece comes from the same source of inspiration — nature and how it connects the past with the present.

“I use the seed of my ancestors, and I plant it in the soil, which is the dust of my ancestors….

On Saturday, Sept. 21, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., indigenous artist Nathan Young will give his “Welcome to Lenapehoking” performative lecture at Pennsbury Manor, William Penn’s reconstructed estate on the Delaware River in Bucks County. 

Attendees are welcome to explore Young’s innovative immersive sound installation, nkwiluntàmën: I long for it; I am lonesome for it (such as the sound of a drum), on the Pennsbury grounds before the presentation. 

As an artist and member of the Delaware Tribe of Indians, a federally recognized Lenape tribe, Young reimagined Pennsbury Manor as a site for both reflecting on our nation’s past and envisioning new futures that honor Indigenous perspectives. In this self-guided, outdoor sound walk, Young’s work will take participants on a journey through Pennsbury Manor’s riverfront grounds with original music compositions, personal narrative and environmental recordings. At the program, Young will perform an adaptation of his work “Welcome to Lenapehoking” and discuss his experience with nkwiluntàmën, inviting audience questions. 

The schedule is as follows:

• 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.: Self-guided tour of sound installation by Young
• 1 p.m.: Welcome remarks
• 1:15 p.m.: “Welcome to Lenapehoking” presentation by Young
• 1:45 p.m.: Facilitated curator Q&A

Admission to the presentation is free, but advance registration at pennsburysociety-bloom.kindful.com/e/meet-nkwiluntmn-artist-nathan-young for this event is highly recommended, as space is limited. There is a $3 fee to tour the grounds, including the nkwiluntàmën installation. nkwiluntàmën at Pennsbury Manor will be closing on June 27, 2025.

Pennsbury Manor is located at 400 Pennsbury Memorial Road, Morrisville.
