The SRWA will participate in Billerica’s volunteer based cleanup day on May 14th. We will be hosting a paddle along the Billerica stretch starting at Pinehurst Park, and ending at a path off Buckingham Dr. We will meet at 10:00 AM. We will also be frequently stopping to remove trash and debris that we find. If you wish to participate, please bring all of your own personal equipment (canoe, kayak, life vests, tools, and gloves to protect from frequent poison ivy and thorns).To receive free bags and gloves from the town, you can register for Billerica’s cleanup day at the Billerica DPW in town hall, although it is not required to paddle with us. If you cannot or do not want to paddle and want to help cleanup the river, you can remove debris and litter from shorelines, accessible swamps, and tributary streams such as Jones Brook and Webb Brook. We will also be looking for volunteers to clean Sandy Pond off of Shane Ln. We hope to see you!
