Copper Hill Church participates in rail trail clean-up day

Posted on April 18, 2016April 18, 2016

Part of our rail trail clean-up crew

Sunday April 17th was Rail Trail clean-up day in Copper Hill as a part of the larger effort organized by the Farmington Valley Trails Council.   While Lisa Griffin and Sheri Mandirola and children had participated last year, this year our church council voted to officially participate as a church and to list it on our church calendar.   So this past Sunday after church at least ten volunteers from our church, four adults and six children, helped with the annual clean-up effort.  We were assigned to the section from Phelps Road north to the state line.   The biggest hazard was from the bicycle traffic since it was a beautiful day.  It was a very pleasant section to walk and thankfully the amount of litter was small.  Pastor Kelvin spied just enough litter to put some trash in each child’s bag. Nancy took the attached pictures.  Griffin, Conner, Shannon, Anna, Ian and Parker did the work.

Watching the stream
What a beautiful day for a walk
They brought a rake and gloves
Beaver work had filled the stream
The whole clean-up only took an hour
