Leaders: Neal Fitzpatrick and Bill Yeaman
Suggested donation: $5-$20
The Foundry Branch begins near the Tenley Metro Station and flows south into the Potomac River, just west of Georgetown. We will look at the natural features of the stream valley park and discuss long-term stormwater impacts and needed infrastructure and stream rehabilitation. We will walk the approximate 3 mile stream valley from north to south, to look at and discuss past problems and future plans for sewer infrastructure and stream rehabilitation. Representatives from the National Park Service, and DC Water, have been invited. We will meet at the intersection of Wisconsin Ave and Van Ness ST next to the McDonalds. The walk will end at the C & O Canal in Georgetown. Participants can return to Tenley on a Wisconsin Ave metrobus and/or make plans for lunch in Georgetown. REGISTER
