Volunteers Needed for 17th Annual CRC Streams Cleanup on May 3rd

RELEASE – The 17th Annual CRC Streams Cleanup will be held on Saturday, May 3 from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM at two dozen sites throughout the watersheds. A free picnic for volunteers will follow at Ridley Creek State Park.

The aim of the event is not only to pick up trash, but to show how our everyday decisions affect the health of our creeks and the watersheds surrounding them. Healthy communities start with healthy streams.

By volunteering to clean our streams, you are providing trash-free streams that result in cleaner, safer waters and healthier environments for all to enjoy.

Pre-registration is requested for volunteers who would like to contribute to healthier streams at http://crcwatersheds.org/resources/view/308.

For more information, please visit our website at www.crcwatersheds.org or contact CRC at 610-359-1440 or info@crcwatersheds.org.
