Mystic Community Earth Day - Malden
Tri-City Community Action Program, Inc. (Tri-CAP) is partnering with Bike to the Sea, Groundwork Somerville, and Cambridge Health Alliance for the third year in a row to organize a clean-up around the Malden River, focusing on the Malden River Walk, Northern Strand Community Trail, and Plaza 188 riverfront tail from 10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. on April 28th rain or shine. This event will be part of the third annual Mystic Community Earth Day, a collaborative effort by several organizations to jointly publicize Earth Day events in the Lower Mystic River Watershed. Volunteers should meet at Cambridge Health Alliance at 195 Canal Street (behind Anthony’s). Supplies will be provided, but additional tools and gloves are welcome. Light refreshments will be available for volunteers at a riverfront picnic. Earlier in the week, on Tuesday at 7:00 p.m., the Malden River will be the subject of a public presentation to the Malden City Council at Malden City Hall.
