Litter Pick-Up on Lower Wappinger Creek & Vest Pocket Park!

Details

This is not a Liquid Skies Event but we are invited by The ADK to help.
Please sign up with leader, **Russ Faller (845) 297-5126 (before 9PM) or email: russoutdoors@yahoo.com**

Wappinger Creek is one of our favorite paddling locations. Unfortunately, it does get littered with plastic containers and other litter of all sorts. Paddlers are closest to the water, so who else will pick up the floating trash? No one. Its up to us. So, please come out for this service project.

Boats of all kinds welcome. If you do not have a boat, you can pick up litter at the vest pocket park at the launch. If you know how to paddle but do not have a boat, contact the leader. He may be able to loan you a canoe. PFD's must be worn properly while on the water. Bring water shoes, boating gear, lunch and water. Wear clothes that can either get wet or somewhat dirty.

We'll meet at 10 am and work until 2 pm, then retire to the Obercreek Brewery in Hughsonville for refreshments and socializing. I expect that each volunteer will get a coupon for a free brew. Please reply to Russ so that he knows who will be coming.

Waivers must be signed.
