Riverkeeper Sweep 2016
Join Groundwork Hudson Valley and Riverkeeper for an invasive species removal project at V.E. Macy Park on Saturday, May 7, 2016 for the 5th Annual Riverkeeper Sweep, a day of service for the Hudson River.
Great Hunger Memorial/V.E. Macy Park is located of/f the Saw Mill River Parkway North at exit 19. Parking will be available at the park. We ask all Sweep volunteers to wear sturdy shoes or boots, clothing that they can get dirty, and to bring a hat, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle and snacks. This site is suitable for elementary-aged children with proper adult supervision.
