The 2nd Annual Great Scenic Hudson River Sweep May 7-16 Last May, Scenic Hudson sponsored the first Great Scenic Hudson River sweep to focus community attention on the river. Volunteers from CAN, Citizens for Riverfront Action, RIC and throughout the region came to spend a day on the river in the City of Rensselaer. With the help of the city, and 17 local businesses and community organizations including Amtrak, the first River Sweep succeeded in removing 13 tons of garbage and recycled metal from the shore area. This year, that area is again targeted as well as others. River loving volunteers are warmly invited to help in the Rensselaer Sweep, Sat. May 15. Coordinators are also being sought for Troy, Wynantskil, Melrose and Castleton-on-the-Hudson. Please call Jeanne Casatelli at h-477-6618 or w-479-4083 or Scenic Hudson at 914-485-8789 for more info. Let's make this year another wonderful, fun and successful day. In cooperation with Troy United Ink Corp., a not-for-profit corporation |
