On Saturday, April 10, over two dozen students, parents, and staff from Gale-Bailey Elementary School came to Piscataway Park to help clean up the Potomac River as a part of the Alice Ferguson Foundation’s 22nd Annual Potomac River Watershed Clean-Up. HBF Outreach paid for their bus to get from their school to the shore. Together they filled about 23 bags of trash, making the beach look spotless and restoring a cleaner habitat for the wildlife that live along the shore! They are now well-prepared to go back to their school for a schoolyard clean-up on Earth Day week. Awesome job, guys!
