April 12th - Annual Stream Clean up Day setup by Raritan Headwaters Association. This is a very large & well coordinated volunteer opportunity to help clean rivers & stream beds within Somerset County. Last year, over 1,000 people help out. After completing sign up, please visit RHA directly on the website at https://www.raritanheadwaters.org/stream-cleanup-registration- to pick a spot to help. Togetherhood Committee for Somerville/Bridgewater YMCA will be in Raritan by the John Basilone Statute (site 95) if anyone wants to join us there.
Join more than 1,000 volunteers across the Raritan River watershed to clean up our waterways for Raritan Headwaters’ 35th Annual Stream Cleanup. In celebration of Earth Week, volunteers come together to clean up our rivers and streams, working to protect essential water supplies across Hunterdon, Morris, and Somerset counties. Last year’s Stream Cleanup was a resounding success and an incredible show of teamwork and volunteerism. More than 1,000 citizens removed 11 tons of trash and recyclables that threaten our drinking water supplies and wildlife. The impact of this extraordinary effort reaches beyond our watershed region – downstream to Raritan Bay and ultimately, the Atlantic Ocean. This event is fundamental in protecting clean water but also beautifies precious outdoor spaces and provides safe access for residents to experience the benefits of outdoor recreation.
