Walk the Length of Rock Creek in 2013 |

Many of us know the parts of the creek near where we live or work, or where we cross sections of park along roadways. We may have only seen Rock Creek from afar, and some of us only catch glimpses from our cars.
Join us to explore Rock Creek this year! The will be a hike along the Rock Creek Hiker-Biker Trail on May 18 and a beautiful loop through Rock Creek Park on National Trails Day, June 1.

Rock Creek Conservancy Releases Strategic Plan |
|
|
|
|
 Over the past year, we took a hard look at how we could best move forward. We surveyed our members, conducted interviews, held focus groups, reviewed information, and debated possible courses of action. The result is a strategic plan that will guide our work for the next three years. We invite you to read the plan and join us in our work to protect the lands and waters of Rock Creek and revitalize Rock Creek Park for people to treasure and enjoy!
