WHAT: Join Save The Bay and Conimicut Village Association for a cleanup at Conimicut Point Marsh! Shoreline trash is ugly and dangerous to wildlife, and shoreline cleanups are a great way for volunteers to make a difference. NOTE: This is a marsh cleanup - looking for hardy volunteers (age 16+) who are prepared for brushy areas and mud! 

WHERE: Meet at the corner of Point Ave & Ellery St. Use 137 Point Ave, Warwick, RI as an approximate address for GPS.

PREPARE FOR THE CLEANUP:

  • REQUIRED: Review our Instructions & Safety Tips
  • Always dress for the weather in sturdy, closed-toe shoes. Boots are a good idea at this site!
  • Bring your own water - we recommend a reusable bottle!
  • Optional: You may want to bring your own work gloves, trash grabber, or bucket for collecting trash. 
  • We will provide disposable gloves, trash bags, and hand sanitizer.

Registration notes:

  • Pre-registration is required.
  • Age requirements: This cleanup is recommended for ages 16+. 
  • Team volunteering: Signing up as a team? See our Team Signup page for helpful information!
  • If the cleanup is full, join the waitlist! Spaces often open up.

Need documentation of service hours? We provide confirmation letters upon request! Just ask your cleanup leader at the end of the event.

Any questions or difficulty registering? Contact July Lewis at jlewis@savebay.org. We want you on our team!
