MaryPIRG stream cleanup - Saturday, April 11

Hello,
I’m part of the Clean Water Campaign with MaryPIRG on campus. MaryPIRG is a student-run and student-funded non-profit that works on a variety of public interest issues. We are working to close loopholes in the Clean Water Act to protect Maryland’s streams and wetlands and I’m writing to let you know about a great event and service opportunity and to see if your group is interested in getting involved.
We’re hosting a stream clean up on Saturday, April 11th, to not only give a little back to our campus, but to raise awareness about pollution in streams not covered by the Clean Water Act.
We’re working with a bunch of different student groups like ENST Restore and the LEAF Outreach Team and would love for your group to get involved as well. We’ll be by the View and Lot 11 from 12pm-3pm.  We’ll have lemonade and other refreshments, a competition to find the weirdest trash item, and the group that collects the most bags of trash will win a prize.
Again, this a great opportunity to give back to campus and get some community service under your belt.
Is your group interested in cosponsoring the event? Please let me know so we know how many supplies to prepare by responding to this email, and having your group members RSVP on our Facebook event page.
