Big River Cleanup - Saturday April 23rd, 2016

What: Big River Earth Day Cleanup
When: Saturday April 23rd, 2016 from 8:30 am to 12:00 pm
Where: Park-n-Ride off Exit 6a of I-95 in West Greenwich, RI

For the 8th 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 23rd, 2016 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:

By tradition, OSJ has made a cash donation to help offset the cost of the cleanup (t-shirts, supplies, lunch). Our goal this year is to donate a minimum of $300. The club has voted use club funds to match up to $150 in individual donations. Reaching our goal of $300 should be a piece of cake. You can make your donation in increments of $5 at the following link:
