Keeping the Earth Day Tradition Alive
Just six months after our belated 2020 cleanup, the Anacostia Watershed Society Earth Day Cleanup roared back in 2021. Our biggest thanks to our 1,200+ dedicated volunteers who removed nearly 25 tons of trash and recycling from the river. As always, a big shoutout to our three dozen site leaders for stepping up to lead their communities in a project that makes the whole watershed a better place. We would like also to thank Pepco, our Gold Sponsor, and Susan Wooddell Campbell, a longtime friend who donated her artwork for the t-shirt this year.
