Green Up Westport Set for Saturday
The town is looking for volunteers to help in the clean-up day.
The Westport Beautification Committee and Westport Parks & Recreation Department is sponsoring Green-up Westport Day on Saturday.
"A letter has been sent to 60 civic organizations and community groups asking for help and cooperation organizing the clean-up and in picking adopted clean-up spots," said Parks and Recreation director Stuart McCarthy.
Also, the Green-up Westport Day committees are asking every Westport resident on that day to take time to clean-up litter along their street or any public space.
