GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – It’s a chance for you to give Mother Earth a little love and also help beautify a Green Bay trail system.
The annual Baird Creek Cleanup is Saturday.
It goes from 8:30 until noon at the Triangle Hill Pavilion located at 500 Beverly Road.
Baird Creek Preservation Foundation Board President, Charlie Frisk, says people will be put into groups working on a variety of projects.
“Some people are going to be doing garbage cleanup, some people will be doing plantings, and some people will be doing invasive species removal.”
Frisk says tools and garbage bags will be provided but asks that people to bring leather gloves, no flip-flops, and wear old clothes.
He expects around 150 people to be at the event with nice weather expected all day.
But despite it being Earth Day, Frisk says it’s important to take care of our planet no matter what day it is.
“Think globally and act locally. This is one thing we can do at this particular site but we need to be thinking about in terms of protecting our environment year round.”
