KINGSTON — Volunteers to help clean up a rail trail are being sought by the Kingston Land Trust.
The cleanup is to be done in conjunction with the Friends of Historic Kingston’s “Clean Sweep” day on April 21.
Volunteers interested in helping with the rail trail cleanup should go to the Super 8 Motel parking lot at 8:30 a.m.
The Kingston Land Trust Rail Trail Committee is leading the cleanup effort with support from Ulster Savings Bank, the Holiday Inn and Super 8 Motel. It is sponsored by Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corp.
Organizers say it is part of the third annual Kingston Clean Sweep, an event created by Friends of Historic Kingston and the city of Kingston’s Park and Recreation Department.
Volunteers should come prepared wearing boots, gloves, bug and tick guard and long pants and long-sleeved shirts. Participants are encouraged to bring their own shovels, loppers and rakes.
The work will involve cutting and moving brush and general trash.
Following the cleanup, participants are invited to the Holiday Inn, which is located near the rail trail entrance at 503 Washington Ave., from 12:30 p.m. to 1:30 p.m.for refreshments and a PowerPoint presentation by the Kingston Land Trust’s Rail Trail Committee.
Participants can register online by visiting http://www.forsythnaturecenter.org/. |
