There is an Earth Day Clean Up on April 18th. in R.I.
I plan on attending again for the 3rd year
hard work but fun :D
we get to go into the woods that are normally gated off to vehicles.
to bring debris and trash back to the main collection area.

Big River Earth Day Clean-up: Saturday April 18th, 2015

Postby Eric » Sun Mar 22, 2015 9:53 pm

What: Big River Earth Day Clean-up
When: Saturday April 18th, 2015 from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm
Where: Park-n-Ride off Exit 6a of I-95 in West Greenwich, RI

For the 7th year in a row Ocean State Jeepsters will be partnering with the West Greenwich Conservation Commission and the RI chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association to host an Earth Day cleanup on Saturday April 18th, 2015 at the Big River management area in West Greenwich, RI.

Immediately following the cleanup lunch will be provided at the nearby Mishnock Barn. A cash bar will also be available.

The following video from last year's clean-up was produced by our friend Peter from the RI chapter of the New England Mountain Bike Association and provides a good idea of what this event is about:

As long as my shoulder and back aren't acting up (thanks to a hit and run accident) I plan to be there!

Yeah lot of work done in just 4 hrs. :woohoo:
the yellow jeep is my buddy Ricky from OSJ
I was at another location pulling the 3 boats out of the woods
that you may have saw earlier in the vid.
people had tied chains to them and towed them around in the woods and when the boat broke up they just left it out there. :roll:
and they were way out in the woods, a very strange site to come up on.

Prob. be on tire duty this time with Ricky
they say about another 200- 300 tires found out there. :roll:
