On Saturday, August 22, Boy Scout Troop 225 from the church of St. Joseph in Aston, Pennsylvania, restored the walking path (blue trail) that leads from Red Hill Farm to the Hermitages. Eagle Scout Peter Rigotti and approximately 20 scouts, parents, and friends gathered to clear fallen trees, debris, and trash from the trail. The trail edges were lined with tree trunks and branches to help lead walkers along the path. Two foot bridges were repaired and a third one was created with recycled materials. The shrine at the end of the path was cleaned up and seating was created from tree stumps. A box will be mounted at the beginning of the trail which will contain cards that contain questions for reflection. The trail restoration project has been a goal of the Franciscan Spiritual Center, driven by the Care for Creation Committee. Thank you, Scouts, for your beautiful hard work!
