2011 Christina River Watershed Cleanup

The Partnership for the Delaware Estuary invites you to the Christina River Watershed Cleanup on April 16, from 8 a.m. to noon. Your help could make all the difference as we attempt to rid Wilmington, Delaware's downtown riverfront of litter--before it washes downstream, into the Delaware River and Bay.

The Partnership for the Delaware Estuary strives to lead by example. One way it does this is by taking a leadership role in its home watershed's largest cleanup, and it has done so since 2000. PDE staffers participate in the Christina River Watershed Cleanup's organizing committee, purchase advertisements, issue press releases and much more. See for yourself in our online photo gallery and newsroom.

To register for this event, please visit ChristinaRiver Cleanup.org or call Shirley Posey at (302) 838-1897.

To join the PDE at its site near the Wilmington Shipyard Shops, simply register for the "Riverfront Wilmington" location. And be sure to stick around after the event. The DuPont Environmental Education Center is hosting an Earth Day Festival until 3 p.m. nearby. We hope to see you there!
