The Quinnipiac River Clean-Up will be held on Saturday, May 4, 2019, beginning at 9 a.m. and ending at 12:00 p.m. We will be working in the bridge area on Tomlinson Road. There is enough room that we can park on either side of the road. If you prefer, you can use the parking lot at Plainville High School by the baseball field. There is a trail that will bring you out to Tomlinson Road. This is a great opportunity for students who need volunteer hours to help clean up Mother Earth. Proper attire such as boots, heavy socks, long pants and long sleeved shirts or jackets are suggested. Please bring your volunteer sheet to the event to be signed by any member of the Conservation Commission. We appreciate any time that you may have to help us. This is a rain, within reason, or shine event. The Conservation Commission will supply water and nutritious snacks.
