Celebrate the River

2 volunteers raise their hands in joy during a clean up day by the river

Several times a year, volunteers gather to clean up the paths along the river.  From May to October, on the first weekend of the month, from 10AM to 12 noon,  whoever is around will gather to clean up the trails, remove invasives and plant native flora. Sometimes debris gets deposited by the river and sometimes visitors drop litter, knowingly or unknowingly. Whatever the source, the Riverwalk Committee and interested volunteers come together for two hours of picking up and whatever else is needed to maintain the riverwalk. It is always fun. It celebrates the river and brings people together.  The most popular day for our clean-up is on Green-Up Day. (In Vermont, that is always the first Saturday in May.)  Keep your eye out for an announcement of the next one. Come join in!
