Chamber schedules roadside clean-up for Earth Day

Warwick — Every year, the Warwick Valley Chamber of Commerce sponsors an official roadside cleanup day throughout the entire town of Warwick. Residents are encouraged to grab some trash bags and join the Operation Clean Sweep on Saturday, April 22. Various groups, clubs, and individuals can take part by pre-registering their routes in order to ensure garbage pickup by the Department of Public Works. Please note that this is for roadside refuse, not homeowner garbage. Committee chair Lisa Montanaro of LM Organizing Solutions will coordinate volunteer efforts. Businesses and other organizations can serve as a sponsor, by providing donations such as garbage bags, gloves, refreshments and food items, or offering financial support. To volunteer or be a sponsor, call 988-0183 or 986-2720.
