From our friends at the Charleston Parks Conservancy…
“In an effort to address citizen concerns about trash on the West Ashley Greenway and Bikeway, the Charleston Parks Conservancy is launching a volunteer litter cleanup program. In April, the Conservancy will kick off Cleanup in the Parks.”
“Beginning in April, the Conservancy will give away 100 cleanup kits with bags, gloves, safety vests and trash pickers. Volunteers can keep the cleanup kits and use them to remove trash from any local park or public greenspace.”
“The Conservancy also is partnering with like-minded organizations to host community cleanup events along the West Ashley Greenway and Bikeway. The kickoff cleanup will be on Earth Day.”
