Steep Rock Celebrates Earth Day

Steep Rock staff will participate in Washington Environmental Council’s (WEC) Roadside Cleanup on Thursday, April 18 cleaning up Christian Street and Route 202 where it borders on our office and Macricostas Preserve.

Many of our Preserves border on state highways which tend to receive a lot of trash. As you sign up to clean roads in town using WEC’s signup, please considering helping to keep the preserves looking good from every angle. 

– Blackville Rd (Rt 109) (East of the intersection of Sabbaday Lane)
– Fenn Hill Dr/ Church Hill Rd (East of the intersection of Fenn Hill Dr and Church Hill Road (Rt 109))  Dr/Church Hill Rd
– Woodbury Rd (North of 2 Rod Hwy on Woodbury Rd (Rt 47))
– Roxbury Rd/ Woodbury Rd (South of Ferry Bridge Rd on both Roxbury Rd (Rt 199) and Woodury Rd (Rt47))

You can also find Steep Rock staff and volunteers at the Woodbury Earth Day celebration and the Washington Earth Day Celebration on Saturday April 20 beginning at 10:00 am.

Please remember to wear bright clothing – Happy Earth Day!
