CCEEC is located at 151 E. White Bear Drive, Summit Hill. The center building is open 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends.

Nature Club

Nature Club will be held from 1 to 2:30 p.m. on Sunday.

Formerly known as “Ranger Rick,” the Nature Club is open to all students in grades K through 6. Each meeting begins in an official session where children will discuss and vote on club business. The afternoon concludes with hikes, games, or other nature-oriented activities.

Programs are free for members, and a $5 per-child donation is requested of nonmembers. Register by phone. All topics to be announced.

Plant Swap

The center’s annual plant swap will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on May 27.

Come with - or without - garden plants to share. This is a great opportunity for new and veteran gardeners alike to save money and to meet and talk with each other for planting tips and tricks.

No registration is required. Native plants are preferred, but not required. Please note, no invasive species allowed.

Rattlesnake Run

The date’s been set, and online registration is now open for CCEEC’s famous, 5k fundraiser. The Rattlesnake Run and one-mile fun walk take place in Lehigh Gorge State Park on June 17.

The easy-to-follow course is great for first-timers, and flat enough for experienced runners to achieve a personal record.
