Blauvelt Park Clean Up
Saturday 10-2
Time to announce our next cleanup!
Although the volunteers have been busy carrying trash out of the woods, it's been 4 months since our last official cleanup. Time to get those spray paint & beer cans out of the woods before all the leaves come down.
Please join us at Blauvelt State Park this Saturday, Sep. 17. from 10am-2pm (but feel free to come and go as you please).
Work gloves and garbage bags will be provided. Long pants, long sleeves, hiking shoes & insect repellent are recommended.
This cleanup is appropriate for families & children- good opportunity to cultivate the next generation of stewards.
Please RSVP, thanks in advance!
