Activities

Field Trips & Tours
Twice each year, we conduct weekend field trips for members and guests. These tours visit various canal sites in or near Pennsylvania. Various Society members are available to speak, present illustrated lectures, and conduct guided tours of canal sites.
Canal Currents
We publish a quarterly historical journal of articles, primarily about Pennsylvania’s old towpath canals.
