Why? A large-scale cleanup of the shores and small islands in the Lower Detroit River is being planned for this day. The goal is to pick up as much litter as possible that resides along the shores of the many dikes, islands, and bays in the lower river.
What is needed? Volunteers with/or without small outboard boats
Glove & boots - Dress for the weather and protection
Extra lifejackets (if you have them)
