How do you top off the end of summer?  With a float down the Swatty!  The Swatara Police Department is hosting our 3rd Annual Swatty Float this Saturday 8/20/22 from 11am to 1pm at McNaughton Park in Swatara Township.  This event is open to all and there is no registration required.  We are asking participants to park at McNaughton Park which can be accessed off of SR0322 eastbound at the entrance to the Swatara Twp. Authority complex.  Once you pull into the complex just follow the driveway down to the parking area at McNaughton Park.  From there, we will provide transportation for you and your family along with any floatation devices, kayaks etc. to Schiavoni Park.  Once at Schiavoni Park we will assist you with dropping into the Swatara Creek and send you on your way!  With the recent water level, the float will take approximately 45-60 minutes to complete (Schiavoni Park to McNaughton Park).  Once you arrive at McNaughton Park we will have officers stationed at the exit point to assist with getting you and your family members out of the creek and safely back to dry land.  We will be providing hot dogs, snacks and drinks to everyone at McNaughton Park after they have completed their float.  Come meet our officers in what will surely be a great time outdoors along the Swatara Creek.  Harrisburg River Rescue and Swatara Police will be present on the creek to ensure a safe event.  If you have any questions regarding the Swatty Float please contact Cpl. Brandon Pokrop via email at bpokrop@swatarapolice.org.  We hope to see you there.
