April 30: Fox River Clean Sweep

Earth Day Fox River Clean Sweep April 30

It's time for our Annual Fox River Clean Sweep in Aurora and Elgin. Events will be held on Saturday April 30 from 9am to noon. Wear sturdy shoes, heavy gloves if you have them, and most important bring your own re-usable water bottle. We will have water available, but no throw-away bottles are allowed on site, as they are a big part of the problem already. Snacks will also be provided. Bring sunscreen and a hat just in case. We will provide bags, gloves and "litter gitters". All participants must sign a waiver, and all participants under age 18 will require a parental signature.

In Aurora, we'll meet in the parking lot of the Aurora Township Building at 80 North Broadway.

In Elgin, let's meet at the North Parking lot of Trout Park at the Intersection of under Ave and Trout Park Blvd. Elgin.

Pre-registration is recommended but not required. For Aurora, contact fran.caffee@gmail.com or mcclac3739@aol.com.

For Elgin, contact fran.caffee@gmail.com, cindy.skrukrud@sierraclub.org, or mccormack.marty@gmail.com.

Working together we can make a Clean Sweep in both Elgin and Aurora. See you on April 30th.

The Fox River is Forever! Dams are Not!
