Club News & Announcements

    • CCTC would like to acknowledge a long time member, Peggy Whittaker, for her contribution to a pedestrian bridge named for her late husband (and former CCTC member), Dr. Richard P. Whittaker, on the Schuylkill River Trail in Union Township. Here is a link to an article on the Reading Eagle Newsite. 

    • In recent weeks, there has been a rash of incidences of vehicle break-ins in several of the parking areas and lots that CCTC uses. Many times this involves smashing windows and stealing items within the vehicle. Please be vigilant about the belongings in your car and be aware of your surroundings. DO NOT leave any valuables in your vehicle- take them with you and don't leave anything in view.  

    • The May, 2022 edition of the Keystone Trails Assoc. newsletter, the Keystone Hiker, has been posted in the Member Section. 
    • The CCTC Hike Sign in Sheet includes some updated language. All Hike Leaders should begin using the new form effective November 10, 2021.
