VOLUNTEERS NEEDED FOR RIVER CLEANUP

RAHWAY- Cub Scout Pack #30 will be returning to the Rahway River to remove garbage and other debris on Saturday, April 30 between 9 am and 1 pm. This year the Scouts intend to focus on the section of the North Branch (Bloodgood Branch) of the Rahway River upstream and downstream of the dam at Winfield Park.  The cleanup is co-sponsored by the Union County Department of Parks & Recreation.

All participants should wear jeans, long-sleeved shirts, gloves and boots, and waders are welcome for folks who like to really get into the water. Each participant is also asked to bring a standard 5-gallon carry bucket with a handle with their name on the bottom to make it easier to transfer found trash to garbage bags.

Last year over 125 persons removed over 135 large bags of floatable and other debris as well as over 40 tires.

For more information, or if you would like to volunteer, please contact Joseph Seebode at jjjjseebode@comcast.net or (732) 381-6853.
