Volunteers Needed to Scout and Pull Water
Chestnuts from the Nashua River
Chestnuts from the Nashua River
Sunday, July 28th, from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM
Volunteers are invited to help scout and pull water chestnuts, an invasive exotic weed, from the Pepperell Pond section of the Nashua River. Gathering baskets and maps will be provided (although if you have an old laundry basket to donate, please do!). The NRWA and Nashoba Paddler are co-sponsoring the pull. The annual pull is done in cooperation with the Groton Greenway Committee and Ducks Unlimited. Volunteers should wear old clothes, water shoes, rubber (dishwashing) gloves, sunscreen, bug spray, water to drink, and a bagged lunch. Volunteers may bring their own canoes and equipment (PFDs are required), but will be asked to sign an insurance waiver. A limited number of canoes will be provided by Nashoba Paddler on a "first call, first served" basis.
Advanced registration is required; all participants must register by calling the Nashua River Watershed Association at (978) 448-0299.
You may register by email at MarthaM@NashuaRiverWatershed.org; please provide a phone number where you can be reached to confirm details. We hope you can help out on the 28th! FREE
