Volunteers Needed: Stream Cleanup, Saturday 7/20
Notice courtesy of our colleagues in the Office of Active Citizenship and Service.
Would you like to support waterway restoration? The Harpeth River Watershed Association is hosting an OPEN CALL stream cleanup this Saturday, July 20, from 9am to 1pm.
We need your help to remove the last bit of flood debris from Pages Branch near Trinity Lane and I-65. This is a site that HRWA has been working on for several months and, with your help on July 20th, we hope to complete it! BUT…we need between 20 and 35 volunteers!
HRWA will provide work gloves, snacks, water, and some waders. Please dress in long pants and close-toed shoes, rain boots, or waders if you have them. Come prepared to be outside.
You must be at least 15 to participate and have parental supervision if under the age of 18. More details and specific meeting location will be provided to those who sign up.
To sign up to volunteer: Please email Anneli at annelitn@harpethriver.org or call 615-790-9767 and provide a name and contact phone number or email address.
Can’t make it on Saturday? Our next OPEN CALL Volunteer cleanup is scheduled for Saturday, August 17. More information will be provided closer to the event date.
