Our partners at the Musconetcong Watershed Association, with help from TU volunteers and others, have plans to clean up the river and nearby roads this coming Saturday. This will be the 20th such clean up. Here are some details:
Saturday, April 14, 9:00 a.m. – noon 20th Annual MWA Spring River CleanUp
Come out and help at the annual River Spring Clean Up. Each year we count on MWA members,
Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Trout Unlimited members, local residents, environmental clubs and organizations,
religious groups, students of all ages, and community service participants to help pull tons of
trash from local roadsides and stream banks. Afterwards participants gather at noon at the MWA’s
River Resource Center in Asbury for hot dogs and sodas. For more information and starting locations
contact Adrienne at 908-537-7060 or e-mail adrienne@musconetcong.org.
Yours truly will be leading the efforts on the upper river, meeting volunteers at Hackettstown's San Bar Park/Alumni Field which is off Willow Grove (which is off rt. 46/Main Street and the same road the Hackettstown Hospital is on). We meet between 8:30 and 9 am. I need some crews with waders and a pick up truck to hit two "hot spots" nearby. If you can make it, give me a PM, email (BCowden@tu.org), or a call at 201-230-3383 or just show up although I like to have some idea how many to expect. Bring waders and gloves and that's it, we'll have garbage bags galore for the day's clean up. We're typically done by noon or earlier, so bring your rod for the afternoon hatches!!!
