PORT JERVIS, NY — The Bash Kill Area Association (BKAA) has invited Port Jervis Public Library’s Hub Explorers (those who have participated before or those who want to join the group for the first time) to celebrate Earth Day by enjoying a walk and fresh spring air, while ridding the Basha Kill wetlands of debris on Saturday, April 22 from 9:30 a.m. to 12 noon. The Basha Kill Wetlands, located less than 10 miles north of Port Jervis, have often been described as the “Jewel of New York.” 

Garbage bags will be provided. Wear boots, work gloves and insect repellant. Bring chairs; lunch, supplied by the BKAA, will be eaten al fresco in the Haven Road New York State Department of Environmental Conservation parking lot (on the left coming from Route 209). Registration will take place at the parking lot.

Pre-registration required at 845/856-7313, ext. 5, by email at thehub@portjervislibrary.org, or in person at the library.
