River Stewardship Day 2011

It’s that time of year again. . .

Time to clean up the rivers. Kitty Cox, chair, is looking for people with motor boats, canoes and kayaks, and people willing to go on foot to pick up trash and debris along the river banks and at boat landings. Meet at one of the three starting locations, Dick Campbell’s cottage on the Mattaponi in King William, Rainbow Acres in King and Queen or the West Point boat landing to get your assignment and trash bags.

If you know of an area that needs special attention, please contact Kitty at 769-3939 so she can make sure we send a crew to those areas. Also call Kitty to register so she can organize crews and plan for lunch.

Following the clean up there will be a picnic at Dick Campbell’s pavilion for volunteers, along with door prizes and awards for the most unusual trash recovered. This is the 21st year MPRA has sponsored the event, which is part of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation’s Clean the Bay Day. We thank all our generous sponsors and volunteers for making it possible.

This event is part of the regional Chesapeake Bay Foundation Clean the Bay Day. Click the pic below for more information.
