Join the 6^th Annual Goose Creek Cleanup on April 16th!

On Saturday, April 16^th you can make a big difference for a healthier environment and cleaner streams by volunteering with the Chester Ridley Crum Watersheds Association (CRC) and your fellow residents to clean up Goose Creek.  Last year, 296 volunteers hauled out 24,200 pounds of junk that had been clogging culverts and streams or creating health hazards along the creek.  The cleanup is from 9 am to 11 am.

Volunteers are asked to report by 8:50 am to get their assignments and enjoy complimentary coffee and bagels.  Please wear hiking boots, waders, or old shoes. Gloves and bags will be provided.
