The Friends of Whitehall‘s fall lake and trail clean-up will be held on Saturday, October 19, from 9:00 – 12:00. The group will gather at the boat landing parking lot at Whitehall State Park (600 Wood Street).
We will be assigned areas of trails and shoreline around the lake to clean up debris and refuse. We will work on both the DCR state trails and the Whitehall Conservation Area trails. We will also clean up some of the roadsides near the lake. Boaters and kayakers are welcome to join us also to clean up the shoreline of the lake.
Gloves, trash bags, tools, bug spray and water will be provided. We will also have coffee, cocoa and donuts available for volunteers.
We will be working with the approval of the Department of Conservation and Recreation. This is a wonderful opportunity to help your community and to enjoy our beautiful lake and trails. We hope you will join us at this worthwhile event.
We strongly encourage our volunteers to wear protective long sleeves and pants to guard against mosquitos. If the threat of West Nile Virus or EEE increases in our area, we will cancel the clean-up.
Please follow us on Facebook for updates on this clean-up and future FOW sponsored events.
