Stream Clean Up
April 12 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Help us prevent trash from entering the Chesapeake Bay!
Our local waterways, from a neighborhood stream to our drinking water reservoirs, are at risk from trash buildup. Anything that flows into storm drains goes directly into the closest waterway unfiltered. Join Gunpowder Valley Conservancy (GVC) for an organized stream clean-up to remove trash from around the Harford Park Community in Parkville.
Join us on Saturday, April 12, from 9 AM – 12 PM.
Please arrive by 8:45 AM to sign in.
In the case of a heavy storm event, the rain date for this activity is Sunday, April 13.
Directions: Meet at Harford Park Community building at 2522 Linwood Road, Parkville, MD 21234. Street parking available on Linwood Road or Park Drive.
What to wear/bring: Sturdy, close-toed shoes that can get wet are mandatory. Bring a pair of grabber tongs if you have them. Bring sun protection and/or rain gear as appropriate. Bring your own water bottle and your own favorite snacks that you know will keep you energized!
If you have questions on the day of the event, please contact this site’s Stream Captain, Cathy Thompson, (410) 227-4061.
Stream Cleanup Program sponsored by the Gunpowder Valley Conservancy in partnership with the Baltimore County Dept. of Environmental Protection and Sustainability.
