ANNUAL MSBA/WEYMOUTH HERRING RUN CLEAN-UP
The Mass Striped Bass Assn will be once again assisting with the Weymouth Herring Run Committee's annual clean up day on Saturday April 5th this year. We will be meeting at Herring Run Park on the corner of Broad St. and Commercial St. at around 8:00 am rain, shine or snow. We will be cleaning up trash, cutting brush, and removing debris. Those interested in helping out should dress for work along the river and dress warm. Last year we had about 50 volunteers and removed a lot of material. Once again Dunkin Donuts will provide refreshments. Thanks to everyone who helped out. Unfortunately due to the small numbers of returning Herring over the last few years Massachusetts along with other New England States have stopped all taking of Herring until at least 2009. MSBA has decided to continue to maintain this Herring Run for future generations to enjoy. |

Thank you to all those that organized and participated in the beach cleanups this year. Of course, don't be afraid to still take out a little more than you bring in ;)
I figured I would relate one small but humorous story from a cleanup a couple weeks back: Quote:
