Attention All West Creek Rail Trail Users
Elk County (PA) Conservation District
🎉 Big News for West Creek! 🎣
After more than 8 years of work, construction is finally breaking ground on a major water restoration project in Elk County!
🛠️ Partnering with Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, we plan to install a passive treatment system on West Creek and the contractor has officially begun to mobilize! Please be advised, there will be work happening on and around the West Creek Rail Trail. See the flyer below for more details.
💧 What does that mean?
It means we're installing a system that will naturally:
Remove harmful heavy metals
Raise the pH of the stream
Support the return of fish and wildlife
And help bring life back to this incredible waterway
🌿 Clean water isn’t just good for the environment—it benefits everyone who loves to fish, hike, paddle, or simply enjoy nature in our community.
📢 Share this to spread the word—this is a huge step forward for local conservation and clean water in Western PA!

Weekend in the Wilds Success
Weekend in the Wilds Success
Weekend in the Wilds drew thousands to events and businesses over the weekend. The 2-days of festivities began Friday and
concluded Saturday evening with a new venue for the fireworks. The event organized by the Cameron County Chamber of Commerce
coordinates activities for each day and works with businesses and non-profits to provide a weekend filled with events.
Two bands featuring young musicians kicked off the event Friday evening. The crowd enjoyed the music and purchased sweet treats
from a local vendor. Saturday brought out a slew of Big Foot Hunters hoping to capture the elusive feet! Mountaineer Search &
Rescue officials say this year everyone with a license received a t-shirt and the successful hunters took home prizes donated by
Cameron County businesses. The sidewalks and streets heated up as the temperature rose. The thermometer reached nearly 90 during
the vendor event which drew more than 50 to set up booths. Many headed to Smokers Insane Terrain Offroad Park for the smash and
crash car mud race. That event continued until 7pm. Food trucks and open fields for pick up games of football, horseshoes and other
activities kept the crowd busy until fireworks blasted off around 9:30.
Cameron County Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Tina Solak noted many new changes to this years event. Vendors were
spread out throughout the downtown. “We placed vendors on some of the side streets to alleviate overcrowding of the sidewalks and
improved access to the businesses. The move also was for safety keeping people from walking on Fourth Street.” The most noticeable
difference was the location of the fireworks. “There was plenty of parking and the exodus from the area went flawless,” according to
Solak. Social media showed plenty of room for outdoor games and gathering in the area set aside at Smokers Insane Terrain Offroad
Park. Solak says plans for next year include the same location for fireworks and adding a band from 7-9pm.
Winners of the annual firequacker duck derby included Mailyn Sidelinger, Isabel Les and Scott Haman. Bunny McLean won the
$1000 gift card to the Emporium Food Market. As of Monday afternoon the 50/50 remained unclaimed. The number on a blue ticket
reads 20382-147. It is worth $365.00. It can be claimed by contacting the chamber office.
Solak concluded with a thanks to every volunteer from every organization/business that contributed with hours or financially. And
special thanks to those that adopted ducks, bought hot dogs, 50/50 tickets, Emporium Food Market raffle tickets or attended the Lit &
Lucky fundraiser. Those funds paid for the bands, advertising and fireworks.
