The Wind River Environmental Volunteer Team Led Cleanup In Bellingham MA on April 22, 2012!

Since 2000, the Charles River Watershed Association has coordinated the Annual Earth Day Charles River Cleanup each April with a collaborative of other non-profit organizations. The Cleanup involves volunteers picking up trash at over 100 different cleanup sites along the Charles River and its tributaries. In a partnership led by Charles River Watershed Association, volunteers from 35 towns within the Charles River watershed work together to do their part in making the Earth a cleaner and better place to live.

On Saturday April 21st, 2012, the Wind River Environmental team joined 4,000 volunteers and community leaders to clean the banks of the 80-mile Charles River at the 13th Annual Earth Day Charles River Cleanup. Wind River was stationed in Bellingham, MA at the Mellen Bridge. In a collaboration led by Charles River Watershed Association, volunteers worked together to remove litter and beautify the Charles River and its surrounding parklands in one of the nation’s largest one-day river cleanup events! Volunteers removed an estimated 15-20 tons of trash from sites throughout the watershed from Milford to Boston.
