The Blackstone Valley Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce that our second annual Earth Day Cleanup in celebration of Earth Day 2006 was a huge success. Three teams worked at different locations; The finished section of the Blackstone River Valley Bikeway; Tricentennial Park in Sutton; and along 122A by the Power Plant in Millbury. We removed many large items such as car gas tanks, old canoes, and even a dishwasher.

Our post Clean-up barbeque provided by Loaves and Fishes as well as many generous donations of fruit and desserts was a great way to end the event... and we even beat the rain this year! Thanks to all of our wonderful volunteers and sponsors without whom this event would not have been possible. Click here to link to our Earthday Photo Gallery!
