This Saturday we will clean up the west end of the Hudson Branch that runs parallel to Frederick Road on private land owned by neighbors.  We have received permission from the property owners, many of which belong to the Ellicott City Flood Solutions Group, to conduct this cleanup!  Based on a recent study sponsored by the Patapsco Heritage Greenway of the Tiber Hudson Branch, a cleanup of debris and trash was recommended as one of our solutions to help reduce flooding and cleanup this watershed area!

WHEN: Saturday, May 11, 2013     

TIME:  10 am - 1 pm   Please arrive by 9:45 am so we can start promptly! 

LOCATION:   Section of the Hudson Branch, off of Frederick Road in Ellicott City.   Vounteers, other than residents living next to the stream, will be directed to park in Parking Lot F off of Ellicott Mills Road off of Main Street, Ellicott City and walk to the site off of Frederick Road.  The closest address to the public parking area is the Roger Carter Neighborhood Center, 3676 Fels Lane  Ellicott City, MD 21043
