parkway east litter clean-up

The RSCA sponsors regular cleanups of the I-376 intersection at South Braddock Avenue. Working with the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PENNDOT) “Adopt a Highway” program the RSCA participation in this effort began when the late Barbara Peterson, long time resident of Regent Square, approached the RSCA with the idea in the early 2000’s. The RSCA agreed to be the organizational sponsor which enabled a liaison with PENNDOT for the regular cleanup efforts. In conjunction with this, RSCA board member, the late William Werner, spent time making sure that “welcome” signs for Regent Square were posted on the off ramps of this intersection by months of back-and-forth work with the state. The RSCA can proudly say that for nearly two decades it has been carrying on the legacy of these two individuals keeping this gateway to Regent Square clean and the community identified. The intersection is maintained at least three times a year, in spring, summer and fall.   These regular clean-ups help keep this key gateway into Regent Square welcoming to all as well as prevents some trash from finding its way to the adjacent Nine Mile Run stream that is adjacent to the inbound Braddock Avenue on-ramp to Pittsburgh.   If you’re interested in being on the mailing list for these regular clean-ups, please send a note to the RSCA at contact@rsca.online to get an early notice of upcoming cleanups.

second saturdays in the square

The Second Saturdays event came about from RSCA Board member Jennifer Merck, striving to have something in the Regent Square community similar to the First Friday events at Frick Park or Jam on Walnut in Shadyside. This family-friendly community celebration at the Wilkins School has something for everyone to enjoy, regardless of age. The event includes great live music and dancing, food from popular local restaurants, a selection of beer and non-alcoholic drinks, and a number of raffle baskets packed with goodies from local businesses. All proceeds from the event go towards other RSCA initiatives, including sending out the quarterly newsletter, the Easter Egg Hunt in Frick Park, and the tree lighting on Braddock Ave..

We look forward to seeing you at this summer’s Second Saturday!
