This past Saturday, over two dozen volunteers gathered at the Meadows in Northampton to hit the riverbank and clean up litter! WRSI and our listeners joined forces with Lindsay Sabadosa's First Hampshire Team and the Connecticut River Conservancy to dig out decades-old bottles and containers, appliances, mattresses, and car parts, to name just a few of the notable finds! Thanks to all the hundreds of volunteers up and down the Pioneer Valley who took part in Source To Sea cleanups this month!

Made possible with help from UMassFive College Credit Union and USA Waste & Recycling, who generously donated a dumpster to our site (which we completely filled in just a couple hours!)

09/24/2024

This September marks the 28th annual Source To Sea Cleanup, when local communities team up on a mission to carry out as much trash as possible from waterways up and down the Pioneer Valley. It’s all made possible by the Connecticut River Conservancy, a nonprofit dedicated to clean water, healthy habitats, and resilient communities throughout the Connecticut River watershed.

WANT TO JOIN THE WRSI RIVER CLEANUP CREW? We’re heading to the Meadows in Northampton with the First Hampshire District Team on Saturday, Sept. 28th at 11:30 AM. Sign up at our page in the link below, or head to sourcetoseacleanup.org to find a cleanup near you!
