Introducing the new Stroud Greenway logo!
To readily identify the interconnectivity of the region’s natural assets and their impact on our economy, environment, and culture, the Friends of Stroud Region sponsored a logo contest among students of an East Stroudsburg University graphic advertising class to design a readily recognizable symbol for the Brodhead, McMichael, and Pocono Creeks Greenway.

Who We Are
The Friends of Stroud Region Open Space and Recreation is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization working to support recreational, educational, environmental, and cultural opportunities for all who live and work in the Stroud Region.
Encompassing nearly 38 square miles of exceptional natural beauty and resources of eastern Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains, the Stroud Region surrounds of the confluence of the pristine Brodhead, McMichael, and Pocono Creeks and its associated Stroud Greenway system.
The Greenway’s corridor of open space not only protects the watershed and shelters its wildlife, but also forms the green infrastructure of the Region’s recreational assets. More than two dozen regional parks offer year-round opportunities for active and passive leisure pursuits, with a series of trail systems connecting urban, suburban, rural, and wild places.
Friends of Stroud Region help to enhance the Greenway system by supporting the acquisition of key parcels of remaining open space, promoting community recreation programming, and developing greenway improvements and linkages.
