Green Falls Trail Clean Up sponsored by Friends of Pachaug Forest & The Last Green Valley: Saturday, April 20, 9:00 AM- 12:00 PM. Join Friends of Pachaug Forest, Inc. as we team up with community volunteers to clean up the hiking trails in the Green Falls section of Pachaug State Forest. Strong winds combined with freezing rain and wet snow over the past winter dropped many trees and branches on trails and there is considerable brush as well as trash from litterbugs to be removed. We will be removing trash in and around the park on trails, roadways and from the water. A limited amount of hand tools including rakes and brush cutters will be available, but you’re encouraged to bring your own. Make sure to bring work gloves, (nitrile gloves and trash bags will be provided for trash pickup) wear heavy boots and bring tick repellent. Following cleanup, we will meet back at the beach to enjoy snacks, iced water and conversation. Feel free to bring a bag lunch as we relax and enjoy the afternoon together with “friends”. Live music will be provided by local musician and songwriter Jonny Debit! If you have questions or to volunteer to help please contact: Michael Lane, Director of Operations at 860-861-5404 or via email at mike.fopf@outlook.com

**Attn Scouts: Badges will be provided to members of scouting troops who participate in the Green Falls clean up event. Please RSVP as soon as possible to: susan.fopf@outlook.com so we ensure we have the proper number of badges!
