This season’s Natural Solution News highlights a few of the golf courses in the Philadelphia area that have installed the M54W Trailhead as well as an historic train depot turned museum, which now has a Clivus system with Foam-flush toilets. After visiting the Philadelphia Cricket Club and seeing their M54W Trailhead, superintendents from Whitemarsh Valley Country Club, Old York Road Country Club, and St Davids Golf Club installed their own to meet their various on-course restroom needs. Hopewell Depot is an historic train depot that has been turned into a museum by a dedicated group of volunteers. A rail-trail runs near the museum so the organization installed an M35 composting toilet with Foam-flush toilets to provide facilities for museum and rail-trail visitors.
