TINMOUTH GREEN UP – 2020
By Doug Fontein
Green Up Day is Saturday, May 30. PLEASE NOTE: Green Up Vermont has changed to this date from the original May 2 date. The Green Up Committee and the Conservation Commission would like to change Tinmouth Green Up this year to minimize risk from COVID-19. To avoid gathering in groups and to maintain social distancing, we'll do individual Green Up at times that are convenient for you. Here's how it works:
Anytime during the 2 week window from Saturday, May 23 to Saturday, June 6, you can collect bags and mark the section of road you want to clean up on a map. The bags and map and markers will be located under the porch roof of the Old Creamery. PLEASE wear latex gloves even for getting your bags and marking the map and throughout your greening up along the road. COVID-19 can survive 24 HRS. on surfaces and on litter. Gloves will be available at the Old Creamery porch if you don't have any. PLEASE one pair per Green Up person. And please maintain social distancing during Green Up.
People should wear work clothes, don't touch any needles or broken glass, and take tick precautions. Go to https://www.healthvermont.gov/disease-control/tickborne-diseases for more tick information.
Apologies for not having our usual fun-filled Green Up celebration and ice cream, but we want everyone to stay safe and healthy in the presence of COVID-19.
