It also houses Widener’s ath- letic administration and coaching staff in a third-floor suite. Schwartz Center offers members of the Widener community access to a gymnasium, weight room, multi-purpose field house with a new re- surfaced floor and a championship size eight-lane swimming pool. The center is open from noon-8:00 pm Monday through Friday and from noon-5:00 pm on weekends. The facility is closed Saturdays of home football games and the Borislow Weight Room and swimming pool are subject to proper staff- ing. Leslie C. Quick Jr. Stadium is home to our football, men’s and women’s soccer, men’s lacrosse, and men’s and women’s outdoor track & field teams. Quick Stadium, which opened in 1994 and seats over 4,000 spectators, also sports Field Turf and lights. Encircling the turf is the George A. Han- sell Track, an eight-lane, synthetic-surfaced track which has served as home for multiple conference championship meets. Edith R. Dixon Field is home to our field hockey and women’s lacrosse squads. Equipped with arti- ficial turf, lights, and a new scoreboard, the field is easily accessible for fans and students. Opened in 2005, the field also serves as home for our intramural teams. The baseball team plays its home game at a on-campus field that opened in 2006 adjacent to Schwartz Center. The facility sports dugouts, bleachers, scoreboard, press box, three batting cages, four pitchers mounds and the same grass used by the Philadelphia Phillies at Citizens Bank Park. The field is one of the finest college baseball facilities in the Philadelphia area. The softball team plays its home games on a beautiful field which opened in 2006 just off Bullens Lane. The facility features dugouts and a scoreboard as well as ample seating area for spectators. The Wellness Center, opened in April 2006, resonates with Widener’s school spirit and pride, provid- ing an inviting and motivating atmosphere that promotes better health. The state-of-the-art 20,000 square-foot facility is located adjacent to Schwartz Center. The center also houses our athletic trainers and provides student-athletes the opportunity to rehabilitate and condition in one of the area’s finest collegiate facilities.

  • Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules
    Proposed Bridge Toll and PATCO Fare Schedules July 2008 Dear DRPA and PATCO Customers: Thank you for your interest in the Delaware River Port Authority and Port Authority Transit Corporation. We appreciate the opportunity to present to you the proposed changes to the toll and fare structures. For the last several years, we have committed to cost-savings measures that have enabled us to operate without changes to our toll or fare structures. However, we now face a very challenging time as our future needs will require us to find additional revenue sources to fund our Capital Program which is critical to maintaining the safety, security and serviceability of our assets. We are confident that with the feedback received from you, our customers, we will be able to propose a plan to our Board of Commissioners that will enable us to face the challenges that lie ahead. We value your opinion and look forward to your comments and suggestions. Yours truly, John J. Matheussen Chief Executive Officer, Delaware River Port Authority President, Port Authority Transit Corporation The Delaware River Port Authority The Delaware River Port Authority of Pennsylvania and New Jersey is a regional transportation agency. DRPA’s lines of business, collectively called “the Authority,” operate under the motto “We Keep the Region Moving.” DRPA traces its roots back to 1919 when leaders from the two states began planning for a bridge across the Delaware River. That bridge, now known as the Benjamin Franklin Bridge, was once the longest suspension bridge in the world. Today, more than 80 years after its opening, the Benjamin Franklin Bridge remains a key transportation artery and a regional landmark.

  • East Coast Greenway Guide
    Welcome to the East Coast Greenway! The East Coast Greenway is a trail network linking scores of local greenways into a unified, 3000-mile route from Canada to Key West. It spans 15 states and the District of Columbia and connects communities between Maine and Florida. The East Coast Greenway aims to accommodate walkers, cyclists, skaters, skiers, wheelchair users, and equestrians. This urban version of the legendary Appalachian Trail will provide safe, traffic-free transportation, recreation, exercise and tourism opportunities to the 45 million Americans who live near it as well as domestic and international visitors to the region. Over 29% of the route (as of summer 2013) is off-road in the form of over 175 individual trail segments and more segments are coming on-line each year. The remainder of the route is currently on carefully selected, safer roadways. Our ultimate goal is for the East Coast Greenway to be completely off-road so it is safe and accessible for people of all ages and abilities to use. East Coast Greenway progress fosters low-cost transport, healthy lifestyles, and a thriving natural environment. The East Coast Greenway Alliance ® (ECGA), based in Durham, North Carolina, spearheads the project in partnership with organizations and agencies at the local, state and national levels. Together, we are creating an American treasure! Dennis Markatos David Read Executive Director Chairman, Board of Trustees The East Coast Greenway in Pennsylvania The East Coast Greenway stretches for 55 miles across Pennsylvania, This guide allows users to easily follow the current ECG travel route passing through the City of Philadelphia and connecting urban, rural through Pennsylvania.
