Save the date--September 15-16

We're only a few weeks away from Riverkeeper's Autumn Beach Sweep, September 15-16, sponsored by the American Littoral Society. Our cleanups keep getting bigger and better--we should have well over 30 cleanup sites all over our region.

I bike a lot along Scajaquada Creek and Niagara River, particularly on the Riverwalk trail, and the summer's accumulation of garbage is easy to see (and smell). Please think about volunteering as a site captain for the cleanup--as Riverwatch captains, your close familiarity with the waterways you monitor make you ideal site captains. You can view our site list at www.bnriverkeeper.org or you can captain a new site. The river needs YOU!
