Our goal is to improve the lives of our Nation’s Veterans and strive to provide nationwide integrated medical care.

Community:
Our August issue will be sent to the post offices tomorrow. We apologize for the delay. It seems the person responsible for coordinating delivery at the printer we use was on vacation last week, and no one filled in. In the meantime, you can ALWAYS find our issues on our website at www.westendhappenings.com. Thank you,

Fish for Free Coming Up Next Weekend!
On Sunday, May 26, the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) will host a Fish for Free day to allow anyone (resident or non-resident) to legally fish on all Pennsylvania waterways. No license is required, but all other fishing regulations still apply.
This is the first of two dates set by the PFBC to enhance fishing opportunities. The next day is Independence Day, Thursday, July 4. This is a great way to expose the next generation of anglers to the outdoors. More information about fishing in Pennsylvania is available at https://www.fishandboat.com/ under Upcoming Events.

Official site of the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission. Our mission is to protect, conserve, and enhance the Commonwealth's aquatic resources and provide fishing and boating opportunities.

PEEC 2024 Earth Day Celebration
Dingmans Ferry, PA

Join us for a fun-filled Earth Day event at the Pocono Environmental Education Center! From 11:00am-4:00pm on April 27, 2024, there will be a variety of vendors showcasing eco-friendly products and services, as well as educational displays and hands-on activities for all ages. PEEC’s Earth Day Festival is presented by AM Skier Agency and Custom Laminating Corporation / Lamtec Corporation.

Stroll through the vendor booths and learn about sustainable living, renewable energy, organic gardening, recycling, and more. Purchase locally made crafts, natural beauty products, and environmentally friendly household items to support green businesses and reduce your carbon footprint.

Kids will love the interactive exhibits and games, such as spring arts and crafts, field games, and a live animal presentation. There will be live music, canoeing, face painting, and tie dying. Visit the “Wild Watercolors” activity station to learn about our local watershed and paint with artist-made, natural paints.

In addition to the vendor area, several environmental organizations and nonprofits will be on-site to provide information about their causes and volunteer opportunities. You can sign up to plant trees, clean up litter, or participate in community science projects to help protect our planet.

Admission is $5 per car, so bring your friends and family and join us for a day of celebrating and caring for our Earth!

PEEC’s 2024 Earth Day Festival is sponsored by AM Skier Agency, Custom Laminating Corporation / Lamtec Corporation, the Alliance for Watershed Education, Pine Forest Camp, International Exchange of North America, Dingmans Choice and Delaware Bridge Company, Bohlin Cywinski Jackson, Manko Gold Katcher Fox, Edge of the Woods Outfitters, Pennywise Fuel Company, The Dime Bank, Milford Hospitality Group, RentEquip, Turano Insurance, Ginader Jones & Company LLC, CPA Rifles, AbelHR, D&S Hauling, and Sudz Your Dudz Laundromat.

PEEC is close to home, where learning comes naturally!
