River Watch – Fall 2020 Edition

You are here: Home / River Watch / River Watch – Fall 2020 Edition

2020 will go down as a unique summer on the River. Beautiful and windy weather, and pandemic constraints. But in spite of Covid-19, it was a very busy summer for Save The River (STR). Working remotely, our dedicated staff was able to keep all of the programs moving ahead and introduced Trash Free River to remove truckloads of plastic and trash from the River.
