Connecticut River Cleanup Targets Source Of Trash

Connecticut River Conservancy

    Thousands of volunteers will fan out in four New England states this weekend to pick up trash from the Connecticut River watershed.

     In years past, tons of trash including plastic water bottles, cans, and tires have been removed.

     The event called “Source to Sea Cleanup” is organized by the Connecticut River Conservancy.

    WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with the organization’s communications director Angela Chaffee.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
