October Riverwalk Restoration Project Saturday, October 10th from 10 am-12 pm!

Join us and the Union County Parks and Recreation Department at the Cranford Heritage Corridor Riverwalk

Volunteers are asked to signup and will be assigned a location.  We will send you an email with your location on Thursday, October 8th.  Your email will give you the exact details of your location, the jobs you will be doing that day, and any equipment you may need to bring with you.

We are incredibly excited that you are considering joining us to help rebuild the history of the Heritage Corridor along the Riverwalk and restore the beauty of this part of our town.  Together our efforts rejuvenate our environment and our community.

Date: 10/10/2020 (Sat.) Time: 10:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT Location: Volunteers will be assigned to either a cleanup location on the Southern section at Droescher’s Mill Park or at the Northern section at Sperry Park. An email with your assignment will be sent by October 8th.

Take part in the town-wide clean-up of the Rahway River. Volunteers are welcome! The Township is providing garbage bags, tools, and disposable gloves, although volunteers are encouraged to bring their own tools, gloves, and a reusable water bottle if they wish.

The meetup and collection locations are:

• Kenilworth Blvd
• End of Riverside Drive @ Nomahegan
• Riverside Drive/Balmier Pkwy Footbridge
• Hampton Park
• Sperry Park
• Droescher’s Mill
• High St Footbridge
• Hillside Footbridge (Crane Parkway)
• Mohawk Park

Volunteers should work in pairs and dress appropriately for walking alongside the wooded and muddy areas along the river. Volunteers should also not enter the river at any time while keeping a recommended distance of at least eight feet from the river’s edge. Children should be supervised by an adult at all times. Please reach out to [email protected] with any questions.
