Help tidy up a wetland

May

Volunteers are needed for a Great Swamp cleanup on Saturday. The Friends of the Great Swamp are sponsoring the effort to neaten up one of the state’s largest freshwater wetlands. Those that want to spend a few hours picking up trash along roadsides and at access points to the swamp can meet at 10 a.m. at the Patterson Recreation Center, which is in Patterson at the end of Front Street.

The morning also includes an information session on the Bigger, Better Bottle Bill. The expanded bottle bill would require deposits on bottles of noncarbonated beverages – such as water and sports drinks- and would require beverage distributors transfer unredeemed deposits to the state’s Environmental Protection Fund.
