WHAT: Help keep Narragansett Bay clean! Shoreline trash is ugly and dangerous to wildlife, and shoreline cleanups are a great way for volunteers to make a difference.
WHERE: Park at Rose Larisa Park, and meet at the gazebo. See map for exact location. We will proceed to the access area at the opposite end of the park at the end of Beach Rd (so if you arrive late, look for us there!) NOTE: There is no precise address for Rose Larisa Park, so you can enter Rose Larisa Park in your GPS, or use 700 Bullocks Point Ave, Riverside, RI 02915 (the carousel) and then look for Rose Larisa park on the OPPOSITE side of Bullocks Point Ave.
