10 April, 2018
The Friends of Whitehall ‘s 13th spring lake and trail clean-up will be held on Sat. April 21st 2018 from 9 a.m. until 12 noon. April 21st is also Park Serve Day and our clean-up is coordinated with the Department of Conservation and Recreation. Please come to the boat landing/parking lot at Whitehall State Park on Wood St. (rte.135) to sign in and then be assigned an area of the trail or shoreline around the lake to clean up debris and the refuse from the windy winter. The trails have been quite damaged due to the weather. We will also clean up some of the roadsides near the lake. Gloves, trash bags, bug spray, tools and water will be provided. Coffee and refreshments will be available. This is a wonderful opportunity to help your community and to celebrate the beginning of Earth Week.
The Friends of Whitehall started in 2005 and our main mission is to preserve, protect and improve the wonderful natural resource of Lake Whitehall and its environs. We are proud of our many accomplishments, which are cited on our website www.friendsofwhitehall.org. Each year we send an appeal letter for membership to residents in the immediate vicinity of the lake and its watershed. We would like to expand our membership to all residents of Hopkinton and surrounding towns who enjoy and use Whitehall, whether for boating, fishing or hiking. Membership forms can be downloaded from our website. We are also on Facebook.
We hope you will help with the clean-up on April 21st and that you will consider becoming a member of FOW. We are a non-profit 501c (3) organization.
