The Squantum Association hosted Earth Day shoreline cleanup

The Squantum Association hosted a shoreline cleanup on Saturday, April 23, along the East Bay bike path from Kettle Point south, including the coves near Cranberry Island and to Boyden Heights and Windsor Cove.

Volunteers included a very energetic team of students from Saint Mary’s Bay View Academy, Bradley Hospital employees and Squantum Association members. The Narragansett Bay Commission supported the event with a grant for cleanup tools, and trash buckets and bags. Squantum Association provided breakfast and lunch for all volunteers.

Squantum member and event organizer, Paul R. Williams noted that this was just one in a series of activities and community support events done through Squantum Serves. Squantum Serves is an initiative of the membership of the Squantum Association. Through our members, facilities and resources, we support charitable and community organizations which improve the quality of life in our state.
