Riverfront Clean-up, Sat. April 24, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
4/1/2010
Join us for spring
cleaning at Harbor Park with special attention to Lions Landing
at the north end and Columbus Point at the south end. Last year hundreds of
volunteers cleared 600' of the northern portion of the park, opening it for
residents and visitors alike.
This spring, the
cleared portion of the park will be freshened up by raking debris and
naturalizing the fence line by planting native Connecticut day lilies and ferns to keep out the
vines. As you do spring cleaning in your yards, please consider bringing those
extra lilies and ferns down on the 24th and planting them along the fence.
For the more energetic
volunteers, the historic brownstone ferry docks will continue to be uncovered
and made accessible for hiking and fishing.
The southern portion
of the park is bordered by Sumner Brook (next to Wesleyan's boathouse and
Columbus Point). The north bank of the brook will be cleared of Japanese knot
weed, bittersweet vines and Chinese Sumac saplings.
Volunteers are
encouraged to wear long sleeved shirts and pants, hats, sun glasses, gloves and
sturdy shoes. We will finish our work with a 1:00
p.m. BBQ
at Lions Landing.
Please register your intention to
join the effort and tell us if you plan to attend the BBQ by calling Lisa
Santangelo at 860-346-1815.
