Apr 28 (Sat): George Page Park and Hetzel Park Cleanup, Along the
Assunpink Creek.
East Trenton Collaborative
Spring - Kick-Off (Mercer
Co).
10am – 2pm. Volunteers are welcome to join us at any time
during the cleanup.
The Assunpink
Creek is a 23- mile long stream beginning in rural Monmouth County and
eventually flows through Trenton where it empties into the Delaware
River. The name Assunpink is from the Lenape people’s language
Ahsën'pinkk, meaning "stony, watery place".
Plastics litter our cities,
rivers and oceans, and growing evidence shows how they contribute to
health problems in humans and animals. Please join the NJ Sierra Club’s
Central Group with Isles, Inc., a community development and
environmental organization based in Trenton to collect trash and litter
in the Parks and along the Assunpink Creek.
Meet at George Page Park,
North Clinton Avenue – park at Lawrence Street. Bring water, snacks and
lunch. Trash bags and gloves will be provided.
