White River Cleanup

Hundreds of volunteer hours have improved habitat on the White River. 50+ tires and countless objects removed.

TU has worked closely with the White River Partnership, and over the years, we have taken cleanup responsibility for much of the lower White River, more specifically from the West Hartford bridge upstream to Sharon, Vt.

Several times each summer, we gathered many volunteers and had fun working to keep this wonderful river beautiful. This summer, we removed over fifty tires and countless other objects, including wheelbarrows, folding chairs, and various industrial thing-a-ma-bobs.

Many thanks to the volunteers who dedicated their weekends to restoring this wonderful habitat.

Watch next spring for your opportunity to join GUVTU in this effort!
