Trachtenberg Office “Sweeps-the-Creek” in Silver Spring!

The Tracthenberg Office was proudly represented at the annual Sweep the Creek event in Sligo Creek Park in the Park Hills neighborhood of Silver Spring. The event was sponsored by Friends of Sligo Creek and led by neighborhood environmentalist Jennifer Kefer. Dozens of people turned out to help clean the Sligo Creek streambed and Sligo Creek Parkway between Wayne Avenue and Piney Branch Road. Among the items recovered from the creek were an 8x10 rug, a bicycle and an electric typewriter. Our Chief of Staff, Alan Bowser, a Park Hills resident, represented the Trachtenberg Office.
