[Janice Euell]

Earth Day River Cleanup and Community Cleanup 

 

On April 17, 2010, The Town of Riverdale Park will host two very important
events. 

. As part of its contribution to the Anacostia Watershed Society's efforts
to clean up the Anacostia River in celebration of Earth Day, residents are
asked to join us as we do our share to clean a portion of the river.
Volunteers wishing to participate in this very worthwhile endeavor are asked
to convene at 8:30 AM, at the Pavilion (picnic area) in Riverside Park,
located at Riverside Drive and Nicholson Street. Participants will be issued
gloves, trash bags and tee-shirts. Please call the Department of Public
Works at 301-864-1803 to register. 

 

. Spring Community Cleanup - The Town of Riverdale Park is also having its
annual community spring clean up on April 17, 2010. Residents are offered
the opportunity to put all of their yard waste/bulk trash items on the curb
the evening of April 16th for pick up on April 17th. Yard waste, which
includes branches, shrubs and trees, must be bundled and tied with rope or
string (do not use wire). Items must be less than 5 feet long and weigh less
than 60 pounds. Yard waste will not be collected unless the procedures are
followed. ,. Please call the Department of Public Works at 301-864-1803 for
additional information.
