SUMMARY:CANCELLED!!! May 12 - Mother's Day clean-up
DESCRIPTION:Sadly the weather does not look cooperative\, and as such we are CANCELLING our May 12 Mother’s Day clean-up of Mill Brook.\n\n\n \n\n\nWe don’t do this lightly. Forecast says solid rain from 9-2\, some of which may be pretty heavy. While cleaning up in the rain is fun\, it is not necessarily safe (especially in high water and fast-moving streams). And picnicking in the rain is a bit of a bummer.\n\n\n \n\n\nHUGE THANKS to all the amazing groups and individuals involved! And please hold Sunday October 13 as a possible rain date.\n\n\n\n \nPlease join the LRWP\, our Americorps Watershed Ambassador Von Scully\, Trash Troubadour Dave Seamon\, and community partners including the Highland Park Environmental Commission\, City of Highland Park\, Reformed Church of Highland Park\, Sustainable Highland Park\, Highland Park Ecology and Environmental Group\, Highland Park High School Environmental Club\, Edison Environmental Commission\, Middlesex County Parks & Recreation Conservation Corps\, Central Jersey Coalition Against Endless War\, and others for a multi-site clean-up of Mill Brook\, culminating in a community celebration in Johnson Park (Grove 2)! (see here for a pdf version of our flyer to share: Mill Brook Flyer-compressed) \nWHAT: a clean-up of Mill Brook (Highland Park and Edison)\, followed by a community picnic and celebration \nWHEN: Sunday May 12\, 2019 \n10:00 AM to noon – clean-up of multiple sites. \n12-1:30 pm community gathering / picnic in Johnson Park\, Grove 2 \nWHERE: Please register for one of three teams: \n\n Team Johnson Park (park near Grove 2): coordinated by the Middlesex County Parks & Recreation Conservation Corps\n Team Bridge & Culvert (meet in Johnson Park near Grove 2): coordinated by the Mill Brook Streamkeeper and Highland Park Ecology and Environmental Group\n Team John Marshall Elementary School (15 Cornell Street\, Edison\, NJ): coordinated by the Highland Park High School Environmental Club and friends\n\nSPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS: Wear shoes and clothing appropriate for getting wet and/or muddy. We are in tick season! Wear long sleeve pants and shirts. Bring sunscreen/hat. Bring a reusable water bottle. Have fun! \nEveryone is welcome to join us in Johnson Park (Grove 2) for a community celebration and picnic from 12-1:30 PM. \nWe will provide some foodstuffs (sandwiches\, chips) and beverages to share. Please bring chairs\, picnic blankets and your favorite picnic treats! \nWant to learn more about Mill Brook?

Streams\, rivers and other waterbodies make up the watershed where we all live. Watersheds are areas of land where runoff from rain and snow drains into a lake\, stream\, river or wetland. These watersheds are full of life. They provide habitat for fish\, birds and wildlife. They are also a source of drinking water for homes and businesses. The Lower Raritan Watershed Partnership and The Watershed Institute share a joint mission to keep water clean\, safe and healthy through conservation\, advocacy\, science and education. \nVisit Lower Raritan Watershed Partnership and The Watershed Institute to learn what we are doing to protect your water.
