“A $3,000 donation from two environmentally active Lower Frederick residents will fund what PV Woods says will be Pennsylvania’s first “Nature Megaphone.”

Larry Cohen and Lower Frederick Township Supervisor Vice Chair Marla Hexter made the contribution to create a large wooden acoustic structure designed to collect and amplify birdsong, rustling leaves and other subtle sounds of the forest…
…PV Woods intends for its megaphone to serve as a destination at the end of the Muhlenberg Woods Storybook Trail, which combines a walk through nature with pages from a children’s book displayed at 22 stations.
The featured stories are changed quarterly. The current Muhlenberg Woods selection is “We Planted a Tree” by Diane Muldrow, which follows families around the world as they plant trees and experience the environmental benefits over time.”
