WHAT: Join Save The Bay for a cleanup at Public St & Allens Ave in Providence! Shoreline trash is ugly and dangerous to wildlife, and shoreline cleanups are a great way for volunteers to make a difference. This recently designated coastal right-of-way is one of the few points of public access to the shore in South Providence. It is being considered for future improvements to make it an inviting, accessible, and healthy community resource.
WHERE: 80 Public St, Providence, RI 02903. Approximate address - cleanup area is at the end of the road. NOTE: Parking is very limited on Public St, please carpool or take alternate transportation if possible.
PREPARE FOR THE CLEANUP:
- REQUIRED: Review our Instructions & Safety Tips
- Always dress for the weather in sturdy, closed-toe shoes.
- 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:
