United By Blue Cleanup at Bartram’s Garden

April 1, 2014 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

We’re pleased to be hosting the kick off for United By Blue‘s cleanup season at Bartram’s Garden! After you spend a few hours cleaning up the banks of the Schuylkill River, you’ll have a chance to win a UBB t-shirt during their unique competitions and you’ll even get to try UBB’s world famous post-cleanup pizza party. Thank you for volunteering to help preserve one of the city’s most important resources! Click here to register for this cleanup.

About United By Blue: For every product sold, UBB removes one pound of trash from oceans and waterways through company organized and hosted cleanups. For more info, visit: unitedbyblue.com.
