Service learning students from the "City By the Water" group will be traveling to different parts of Philadelphia to explore the city's relationship with its rivers. Some of the places that students are going to include the Benjamin Franklin Parkway,Wissakicken Park, Schuykill River banks trail, and the Delaware River water front. This blog will share students responses to these areas and tell about our experiences as we try to find out how the city is affected by water.

Benjamin Franklin Parkway
Yesterday July 12 , 2010 me and my coworkers went on our first field trip , which was the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. We walked all the way from city hall there iht was a very hot , exhausting , but memorable walk! We had a great time learning about the history of the Parkway and admiring the statues. my coworkers and I learned what the statues mean! for instance the statues in the Logan circle of the man , woman , and girl. those statues were symbols of the Wissahickon , Delaware , and Schuykill rivers. That was very neat and creative!
