About the event
The Concord River is a beautiful wild natural public resource in Carlisle's backyard. Saturday September 27 is National Public Lands Day. From 9am to noon we'll be on the river helping to clean up trash. If you'd like to join us, you can register here: https://oars3rivers.org/events/event/bedford-carlisle-cleanup/. We have a limited number of boats you can borrow, or bring your own, or help along the shoreline. This is a family friendly event if you'd like to bring the kids along. Sponsored by the Watershed Organization for the Sudbury, Assabet, & Concord Rivers (OARS), the Carlisle Conservation Foundation (CCF), the Carlisle Environmental Sustainability Committee (ESC), and the SuAsCo River Stewardship Council (RSC) for the National Wild & Scenic Rivers System. Hope to see you there!
