Art to Save Lives
In the week following Earth Day 2025, the Pocono Environmental Education Center, (PEEC) worked with mural artist, Eurhi Jones, to install several bird strike deterrence features on our Visitor Activity Center (VAC). Without these installations, birds collide with the glass because they see the reflection of the sky, trees, and landscape outside the building. Bird silhouettes on the outside of the VAC windows are complimented by clear 2” Bird Tapes spaced 2” apart. According to research conducted by Cornell University, this spacing reduces bird strikes by over 90%. Paint marker dots were added on easy to reach areas as well to demonstrate an easy and inexpensive way to deter bird strikes at home and on school buildings. PEEC received project support from several sponsors and volunteers, including CollidEscape, Alliance for Watershed Education of the Delaware River, Pennsylvania Society for Ornithology, Rent-Event, and Bobcat of Milford.
Glass = Bird Deaths
According to the American Bird Conservancy, glass collisions kill up to 1 billion birds in the U.S. each year. Existing buildings need to be safer for birds.
Birds at PEEC
PEEC’s campus provides habitat for PA’s Species of Greatest Concern, like the Wood Thrush and Blackburnian Warbler. Reducing bird collisions helps prevent these species from becoming endangered. Amanda Subjin, PEEC’s Chief Executive Officer noted, “What started as a way for PEEC to reduce the number of bird deaths, resulted in our very own staff learning more about how this project helps to prevent more bird species from becoming threatened or endangered. We’re so thankful to Eurhi and her team for the thoughtful and creative design she incorporated into this installation. Many of the species we are working to protect are visibly evident in the silhouettes she includes, further incorporating education into art!”
You Can Help, Too!
Birds see the reflection of the outdoors in our windows. You can reduce these reflections at home and at your school or workplace with products like CollidEscape, Acopian Birdsaver cords, paint markers, or suncatchers.
The Pocono Environmental Education Center, a 501 (c)(3) non-profit, is located within the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, between Milford and Bushkill, PA. PEEC advances environmental education, sustainable living, and appreciation for nature through hands-on experience in a national park.

Honeymoon Haven to PEEC
Read about the history of PEEC in an excerpt from:
Before It was PEEC
One couple’s experience at Honeymoon Haven, the rustic resort that once occupied PEEC’s campus.
By Don and Barb Killmeyer, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Fun activities and even a plane ride were included for the “exorbitant” sum of $125.
We’re sure all honeymoons are special, but we feel we made a great choice 53 years ago when we chose to spend a week at Honeymoon Haven in the Viking Heights area of Dingmans Ferry, Pennsylvania.
The early-November weather of 1954 was cold and snowy when we set out from Pittsburgh for the Pocono Mountains around 4:30 p.m., having enjoyed an afternoon wedding reception. Getting to Viking Heights was an adventure in itself.
Darkness settled in, and we occasionally saw a spark flashing under the dashboard of our six-cylinder 1948 Nash. At one point, we discovered that if we stopped the car, the motor would die, and it was reluctant to start again. So, we had to keep the car moving.
This was sometime around midnight, and all auto-repair garages were closed. We found out later that one spark plug was fouled, something we took care of with a “hot plug” on the way home.
In addition, the heater in the Nash was broken, so we were freezing when we finally drove into Honeymoon Haven around 3 a.m. It was at the top of a steep hill, and with the Nash’s motor missing one plug, it took us three tries to make it up. For the rest of our stay, the manager called us Mr. and Mrs. Paul Revere for having woken him up in the middle of the night.
The resort catered to honeymooners only, and the staff did their best to provide a memorable week for all of us. Most of the people were from New York and New Jersey, so hearing the East Coast accents was real different for Barb, who was only 19 and hadn’t traveled much.
We were teased about the song Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, sung by Guy Mitchell, since it starts out, “There’s a pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania,” and another line of the song says, “She was peaches, she was honey, and she cost me all my money.”
We kept in touch with two of the couples staying there, but that eventually fell away.
The people who ran the resort were great. A silver-haired gentleman drove us on scenic tours in the resort bus. One was to a mountain from which you could see three states.
Other activities included horseback riding, a square dance, bowling and movies in the Rumpus Room. After the bowling one night, we were taken for pizza and beer—both a first for Barb.
In warmer weather, there were also rifle-shooting matches, a hayride and a softball game against a nearby resort.
We were even treated to a 15-minute flight in a Piper Cub airplane over the Delaware Gap and the estate of famous bandleader Fred Waring. That was thrilling for Barb, a first-time flier; Don had been on planes in the service.
For all of this, a week’s stay in our Kozy Kabin and three delicious meals served daily, we paid the grand sum of $125…and we wondered at the time if we’d be able to afford that.
Even now, we get a little nostalgic when we hear the song That’s Amore sung by Dean Martin. It was popular at the time and was played on the dining room loudspeaker over and over again. It always reminds us of our wonderful stay at Honeymoon Haven.
In August 2019, ten Swarthmore students and their professor, along with PEEC staff, embarked on a 7-day sojourn along the Upper and Middle Scenic Delaware River. Their overnight camping trip totaled nearly 70 miles of beautiful rapids, mountains, and wildlife. After returning to school and some hard work, they have shared their stories with us. Follow our adventure through their eyes in this wonderful story map!
PEEC’s EcoZone! Grand Opening
November 14, 2011
Lehman Township, Dingmans Ferry, PA – The transformation is nearly complete! The old indoor pool at the Pocono Environmental Education Center has become the new EcoZone! exploration & discovery room. The EcoZone! will be open to the public for the first time November 20, 2011 from 12:00 to 3:00pm. Everyone is welcome to visit & explore during the grand opening.
Visitors will enter the EcoZone! next to a life-sized Bald Eagle’s nest & a giant eagle mural by Ken Batelman. The mural was supported in part by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. The eagle’s nest will show visitors what an actual eagle nest looks like and students will be able to climb into the nest to experience the world of the eaglets (baby eagles) after they hatch.
Another prominent exhibit is the bat cave. Visitors to the bat cave will crawl through the serpentine tunnel and enter the “decorated” big room. The big room is decorated with stalactites, stalagmites, flowstone, and rimstone. Visitors can explore the cave exhibit and learn about cave ecology and troglobites (cave dwelling animals).
The black bear skeleton display is a “puzzle”. Kids and adults will be able to see and understand the difference between bear & human skeletons as they manipulate the 75 magnetized bones to complete the skeleton of what was a 450 pound bear. Visitors will be able to examine the large teeth and claws, but the relatively small skull and students will be able to see how the shape of the skeleton helps bears to adapt & survive in their environment.
Other exhibits include a beaver lodge, an aquaponics display, a fossil pit, a recycling display, a watershed display, “The Lab”, a “Skins & Skulls” display, and the “Critter Corner”.
PEEC’s mission is to advance environmental education, sustainable living, and appreciation for nature through hands-on experience in a national park. PEEC provides unique, year-round environmental experiences to families, school groups, scouts, and nature enthusiasts of all ages. The environmental center is located near mile marker 8, within the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, in Dingmans Ferry, PA (Lehman Township).

The Eagle has Landed… at PEEC
October 11, 2011
Lehman Township, Dingmans Ferry, PA – A life-sized Bald Eagle’s nest is one of the new exhibits located in The Pocono Environmental Education Center’s (PEEC’s) soon to open EcoZone! The Bald Eagle’s nest is located next to a giant eagle mural by Ken Batelman. The mural was supported in part by the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. The nest will show visitors what an actual eagle nest looks like. Students will even be able to climb into the nest to experience the world of the eaglets (baby eagles) after they hatch.
The nests of the Bald Eagle are typically 5 feet in diameter, though some can reach 9 feet. The nests can be 12 feet deep & weigh up to 2 tons. Even though PEEC’s nest seems extremely large, it is actually very close in size to one that would be found in nature. Since most people never get to see a real Bald Eagle’s nest, PEEC added one to the EcoZone! as a component of the discovery room.
The EcoZone will officially open on Sunday, November 20, 2011 and all are welcome to explore its wonders from 12 to 3pm.

New Lodging in PEEC EcoZone
October 3, 2011
The beavers have completed work on the beaver lodge in the Pocono Environmental Education Center’s (PEEC’s) new EcoZone Discovery Room. Three thousand two hundred seventy three sticks were individually gnawed as raw material and 2.29 tons of pond muck were tail slapped in the creation of the lodge in the deep end of the old indoor pool. The beavers were paid at full prevailing wage in white birch trees and high bush blueberries and had full dental benefits.
Although the beavers refused to be interviewed on the record, one was heard to say, “Yeah, it was a “dam” solid project, but why anyone would want one of these lodges inside was a mystery to us. With these environmental types, you never know what drives them.” The beavers’ safety record was admirable, but the legs of several picnic tables were slightly chewed up one evening after a rousing rendition of “I’m a beaver and I’m OK.”
The EcoZone will officially open on Sunday November 20, 2011 and all are welcome to explore its wonders from 12 to 3pm.
Bear Bones in the EcoZone?
September 26, 2011
Lehman Township, Dingmans Ferry, PA – The bear skull is connected to the first vertebra (the Atlas). The Atlas is connected to the Axis, and the Axis is connected to the…you get the picture. In the Pocono Environmental Education Center’s (PEEC’s) new EcoZone, you will get to do the assembly.
The black bear skeleton is a “puzzle” that visitors to the nearly completed EcoZone will be able to put together. Kids and adults will be able to see and understand the difference between bear & human skeletons as they manipulate the 75 magnetized bones to complete the skeleton of what was a 450 pound bear.
Visitors will be able to examine the large teeth and claws, but the relatively small skull. Students will be able to see how the shape of the skeleton helps bears to adapt & survive in their environment.
Please note that no bears where harmed in the creation of this exhibit; this bear died of natural causes in the wild. After staff& volunteers transferred the bear to PEEC over a year ago, the bones were cleaned by dermestid beetles, then sealed & preserved. Now, the bones are being arranged into a hands-on exhibit.
You can see photos of the work in progress on PEEC’s Facebook page or visit PEEC to hike our trails and check on the EcoZone! The windows into the room have been uncovered & visitors to PEEC can observe the daily progress. The grand opening of the EcoZone is planned for late November 2011.

PEEC Ecozone Opening Soon!
September 13, 2011
Lehman Township, Dingmans Ferry, PA – Did you ever want to go inside a Beaver Lodge or a Bat Cave? The Pocono Environmental Education Center (PEEC) is in the process of transforming its indoor pool into an EcoZone! – a hands-on, discovery room. The new interactive exhibit room at PEEC will open this November and will include a bat cave, beaver lodge, eagle’s nest, fossil pit, and much more. The displays will be hands-on and interactive; visitors will crawl through the bat cave, walk through the beaver lodge, and dig for fossils.
PEEC’s old indoor pool has been closed for some time due to the high cost of maintenance & repairs. In an effort to make use of the large space in a way that would complement PEEC’s mission, Executive Director Jeff Rosalsky visualized a room where the thousands of children that visit PEEC each year could learn about nature in a fun, hands-on setting. Through the efforts of PEEC staff & volunteers, and with many generous donations of funds, time, and materials, the room is nearing completion.

Women Making Waves: PEEC Creates River Trip Program for Young Philadelphia Females
June 24th, 2010
Lehman Township, PA – This past week, 11 young women from the Philadelphia area spent time at the Pocono Environmental Education Center (PEEC) to prepare for their upcoming Delaware River trip. Women on the Water (WOW) is a program created by PEEC and funded by a grant from the National Park Foundation (NPF) in which the participants will learn about and deepen their experiences with the natural world.
July 10th through the 16th, 2010, the girls will head to the river guided by Kittatinny Canoes. They will spend 4 days rafting, canoeing, kayaking, and camping along the Delaware. Throughout the trip, the girls will be blogging about their adventures on the water. You can meet the participants and learn about their recent trip to PEEC, as well as follow their adventure at http://womenonthewater.blogspot.com.

Innovative Conservation Program Teaches Urban Youth About Restoring Native Habitats
April 8th, 2010
WASHINGTON, DC (April, 19th 2010) – Area youth from the East Stroudsburg, Middle Smithfield and Bushkill areas will be planting a garden of native plant species in Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DWGNRA) on April 24th, 2010 as part of the National Park Foundation’s First Bloom program and as a part of the Pocono Environmental Education Center’s (PEEC) Earth Day Celebration that day.
First Bloom gives students firsthand experience in national parks, and teaches them about native and invasive plant species. “The young people that have been part of First Bloom at our park have learned and grown tremendously,” said Molly Check, PEEC’s Naturalist and Public Program Manager. Heidi C. Normand, PEEC’s Associate Director of Education stated “The park and our center have really valued their enthusiasm and their hard work as we have designed and planned this native garden, which will restore this area of land to its natural beauty and give the thousands of visitors that come to PEEC each year a chance to learn about native plants and wetland ecology.”
“One of the most important things anyone can do for the environment is to connect young people to parks,” said Neil Mulholland, president and CEO of the National Park Foundation. “Kids, who are forging connections with the national parks today, are likely to have lasting relationships with the parks and the outdoors for their whole lives.”
First Bloom connects kids between 4th and 6th grades to national parks and natural environments. The nationwide program is currently taking place in 26 national parks in partnership with 31 youth groups across the country. Most First Bloom kids meet with park rangers monthly over one program year, approximately September 2009 to June 2010 to engage in outdoor, hands-on activities and learn to love the outdoors and their national parks. PEEC’s program is different in that their First Bloom participants meet with PEEC’s environmental educators and partake in 2 overnight program experiences at PEEC’s 38 acre residential environmental education center located in the park. Toward the end of the program, youth involved plant a native landscape at a national park. That landscape is a lasting connection for those youth, a transferable experience, and a feature that all future visitors to the park will enjoy. In addition, the PEEC / DWGNRA First Bloomers are also helping to start the planting of an “outdoor” wetland ecology “natural” classroom adjacent to their garden. This parcel of land was designed to manage storm water runoff from pavement on the PEEC Campus. Basic Pennsylvania wetland plant species will be planted in the area and interpretive signage installed to help educate the public about native wetland ecology.
To learn more about the First Bloom program, visit www.first-bloom.org. First Bloom programs around the nation were generously supported by the UPS Foundation, ARAMARK Parks and Recreation, and gifts from private donors and foundations.

PEEC Receives NCAC Annual Community Award
Lehman Township, PA – The Northeastern Pennsylvania Nonprofit & Community Assistance Community (NCAC) honored the Pocono Environmental Education Center (PEEC) with an award during the 2008 Community Awards Program in June.
The Center received first place in the Environment & Animal Welfare category for the Green construction of its new dining hall. The community award highlighted the new building’s sustainable design and the benefits of this Green design on the Earth. Aside from its positive effect on the environment, the dining hall is also used as a learning tool for the 24,000 students, teachers, families and individuals who visit PEEC annually.
PEEC’s Executive Director/CEO Jim Rienhardt accepted the award, “Through over $7 million of Congressional, State, County and private funding sources, PEEC has made improvements to its facilities that will benefit our guests and the environment. We are very honored to receive this award and to be recognized by NCAC and NEPA for our efforts.”
The community awards highlight local nonprofit organizations that make an extraordinary impact within NCAC’s seven-county region, which includes Carbon, Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, Pike, Schuylkill and Wayne counties. For more information on NCAC or the NEPA Alliance call (570) 655-5581.

PEEC’s Dining Hall Receives National Architectural Award
Lehman Township, PA – The Pocono Environmental Education Center’s dining hall has once again won an award for its sustainable design. The American Institute of Architects (AIA) and its Committee on the Environment (COTE) selected the top ten examples of sustainable architecture and green design solutions that protect and enhance the environment and PEEC’s building was on the list!
Projects for the awards were selected because they highlight both the design innovations and sustainable strategies, along with the metrics achieved in terms of reduced carbon emissions, reduced energy consumption and improved building functionality. These projects also have a positive effect on their community, improve comfort for visitors and utilize sustainable design to reduce its impact on the environment.
The Wilkes Barre based architect firm Bohlin Cywinski Jackson (BCJ) designed PEEC’s award winning building that opened in 2006. The building was designed to reinforce PEEC’s mission to enhance environmental awareness, knowledge and appreciation through hands-on experience in a natural outdoor classroom. Through a great deal of research, material selection and analysis, BCJ focused on the principles of sustainable design for the multi-purpose dining hall which is also used for lectures, conferences and special events. As part of the site design, native grasses were also planted to provide a landscape that is low maintenance and integrates the project into its natural surroundings.
AIA Judge Susan Rodriguez commented on various aspects of the building and was especially impressed with the use of discarded tires to cover the north wall of the new building. The re-used tires have been cut into strips and converted into exterior shingles, providing a waterproof seal that is long lasting and maintenance free. These tires are especially important to PEEC and the Park Service because the majority of the tires used were fished out of the Delaware River during river clean-up days.
PEEC’s Executive Director/CEO Jim Rienhardt commented on the award, “We were very fortunate to have such a talented firm as Bohlin Cywinski Jackson design our building. PEEC is very proud of our Green dining hall and it is good to see other organization’s acknowledging this amazing building and highlighting the importance of Green architecture.”
The building also won an AIA Architectural Honor Award in 2006 for its unique design. The projects will be honored this May at the AIA 2008 National Convention and Design Exposition in Boston. For more information on PEEC’s award winning/Green dining hall call (570) 828-2319.
