Hello Neighbors!
Reply to deepharbour@comcast.net We are arranging a Cambridge Creek Clean-Up date for 20 April 2019 starting at 1:00 PM. We have picked that date and time because Earth Day is Monday the 22nd of April and low tide on Saturday is at 12:21 PM.
Meet in front of 900 Marshy Cove. Bring rakes, nets, and any other tools that may be helpful in collecting debris.
The clean up would be supported as part of a ShoreRivers Project Clean Stream which takes place throughout the Choptank River watershed. ShoreRivers will register the Deep Harbour/Gen III site as a cleanup under ShoreRivers which enables them to provide bags and gloves for the volunteers.
ShoreRivers has linked us with Cambridge Public Works and they will come and pick up the trash bags on Monday the 22nd.
To make this happen all I need is a head-count so I can let Matt know how many gloves to provide. So this is an RSVP. Please let me know if you can support the clean-up event by COB Friday the 5th. If you have other potential participants please forward this request to them...but I will need an RSVP...
If the weather looks good we could even do a cook-out with burgers and dogs and beer at the end of the clean-up … Thoughts?
Thanks,
Mike S.

- Every year we organize what's called Project Clean Stream throughout the Choptank River watershed. Our coordination efforts usually include more than 15 sites from Cambridge up to Greensboro, and all in between. We have registered the Gen III site as a cleanup under ShoreRivers which would allow us to supply bags and gloves for all the volunteers.
