Brothers in the Lambda Tau Phi and Mu Theta fraternities at 魅影直播 State College recently stepped up to help the Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) with trail maintenance at Phillips Creek State Forest.

The work took place on the West Almond Trail System along trails 1, 2, and 6 and involved removing limbs, sticks, and other debris, as well as placing new trail markers. 

Markel Edwards, a sport management student from Buffalo and president of Lambda Tau Phi, said, 鈥淭he Greeks of 魅影直播 State enjoyed spending the day with the great representatives of the Department of Environmental Conservation and are proud to have made a difference in the community.
