Earth Month Cleanups

Take Action for Earth Month

Join Save the Sound for any of our Earth Month cleanups in Connecticut and New York! Beach and park cleanups are a fun way to engage in your community and leave our watershed better than you found it.

Help remove trash from our coastline and parks while contributing valuable data to support pollution reduction laws. We’ll be using the Clean Swell app—download it for iOS or Android.

📍 Veterans Memorial Park, Norwalk, CT | 9:30 – 11:30 a.m.
📍 Rye Town Beach, Rye, NY | 10:00 – 12:00 p.m.

Sunday, April 27
📍 Six Lakes Perimeter, Hamden, CT | 12:00 – 2:00 p.m.

Meeting location and parking details for the above cleanups will be provided in a confirmation email.
