Conestoga Club works on “The Bush” and Sponsors Earth Day Festival
The Conestoga Club is a club to be recognized.
They are working wonders with the vegetation along the Conestoga River. Originating in the 1990s, Dr. Ambler, the head of the Conestoga Club here at Millersville University, and Professor of Biology explains the ongoing effort the club puts forth to keep the environment enriched. According to Dr. Ambler “The Bush along the Conestoga River was once a farm pasture in the 1950s and now has grown into a forest. This is a natural process called succession and called ‘old field succession’ when abandoned farmland becomes a forest again.”

There were only three pigs labeled one, two, and four, they spent all day looking for number three. Hey what can I say, I graduated from hick high in Southern Lancaster County.
