Taking the lead in park clean up
It’s one thing for political leaders to talk about the importance of civic engagement, and it’s another to actually do it. This Saturday, Governor Patrick and Lt. Governor Murray, along with their families and hundreds of volunteers, will be participating in a clean-up program that will include 49 parks and beaches from across the state. Here in the greater Lowell area, the Lowell-Dracut-Tyngsboro State Forest is the local site for clean-up activities. According to the governor’s website: “Just as they belonged to the generations that preceded us, our parks belong to each of us and to our children. That’s why I’m joining volunteers from across Massachusetts to clean-up our local parks just in time for summer. I hope you’ll join us.” For more information about our State Forest and details on the upcoming park clean-up program, check here.
