Join the Rondout Creek Watershed Alliance and Riverkeeper for a cleanup of Rondout Creek between Foordmore Road and Port Ben on May 4, 2019 for the 8th Annual Riverkeeper Sweep, a day of service for the Hudson River.
Volunteers should meet at 1150 Berme Road in Kerhonkson. We ask all Sweep volunteers to wear sturdy shoes or boots, clothing that they can get dirty, to bring a hat, sunscreen, a reusable water bottle, snacks, and work gloves if possible. Work gloves will be provided for those who do not have their own. Trash bags will be provided on site. This site is suitable for elementary-aged children, with proper adult supervision.
