Green River Cleanup Walk rescheduled to Saturday, July 18 at 1:00pm

South Williamstown Community Assoc. invites all to join with the Hoosic River Watershed Assoc. to clear Green River debris. More info: Contact:  Bette Craig (413) 652-9098. This event was postponed last weekend due to thunderstorms.  Come cleanup on SAT, JULY 18, 1:00pm.

If you’re able bodied and not afraid of slipping on wet stones, join us for a cleanup walk along the Green River. This is a project we’ve done in collaboration with the Hoosic River Watershed Association for the last few years to address the debris washing into the river from a former town landfill located behind the Hart farm on New Ashford Road (Rte 7).
Park at the Hart Garage and cross the road to walk down the driveway at , 340 New Ashford Road. You’ll need rubber boots and gloves and don’t forget to spray yourself with insect repellant. Covid-19 restrictions on wearing a mask and social distancing will be in effect. The Town will provide us with garbage bags and arrange for disposal.
