On Saturday, October 4th, Harrisburg Young Professionals, in partnership with Harrisburg University, held a clean-up and mulching event for the Forster Street median in downtown Harrisburg. By all measures, the event was a huge success. Over 30 volunteers, including HYP members, HU students and staff, and neighborhood residents, showed up to pull weeds, pick up trash, and spread mulch, making one of the City's busiest traffic corridors a beautiful promenade. HYP is extremely grateful to the following organizations for their support of this event:
Harrisburg University
PennDot
Senator Jeff Piccola
City of Harrisburg, Department of Parks and Recreation
Messiah University
Friends of Midtown
Capital Area Neighbors
HYP Board and Volunteers
