The winter of 2018 has wreaked havoc on many communities, as evidenced by the numerous images on television and social media.  On a local level, while planning for our Annual Spring Cleanup, we’ve discovered areas along the Quincy RiverWalk and Neponset estuary that are in desperate need of TLC.  The photos below were taken on March 7, 2018 in Quincy, and show recent damage from Winter Storm Riley.

Can you help with the cleanup? Bring a friend or two. Organize a group of co-workers. Come and make new friends! Whatever time you can give is much appreciated!
