This trail was named after Chief Master Sergeant Richard Etchberger, who grew up in the area and was assigned to a top-secret CIA project known as "Project Heavy Green.". In 1968, he tragically lost his life during one of the bombing missions. This trail, dedicated to him, runs along the Schuylkill River and through Hamburg Community Park.
