For a number of years volunteers from Southampton Residents Association (SRA), along with others, have assisted in the annual cleanup of the main beach in Southampton between South Street and the river mouth. This year’s cleanup is scheduled for 10:00 am to noon on Saturday, April 29. The SRA effort is again being coordinated by Ken and Jane Harlock who will meet all volunteers at the flag at the foot of High Street on that day at 10:00 am.
All SRA members, their families, friends and neighbours are encouraged to participate in this group effort. Please bring your own gloves; garbage bags will be supplied. If you are able to help, please email Ken and Jane at kharlock43@gmail.com or at 797-1879 so that they know how many to expect.
And, for the First Time
This year Joyce Stirling (on Tyendinaga) has offered to coordinate a beach cleanup on the North Shore, focussing primarily on the various sandy areas north of the river. If you are on the north shore and can help Joyce out this could become an annual social/work get together for north shore neighbours. Please contact Joyce directly at joystirling@yahoo.ca or at 797-5208.
