Newtown Creek Alliance invites you to join us at 
Plank Road
 for the 14th annual Riverkeeper Sweep! Plank Road is a unique street end site in Maspeth, Queens that we have been working to restore for both wildlife and local workers/residents alike. We aim to engage folks with this rare public Creek access point through hands-on projects that can help improve environmental conditions along the shore and in the Creek itself.
This event will include:
Landscaping the existing vegetation and paths
Cutbacks
Trash cleanup along the shoreline.
Removing specific plant species like knotweed
​​We will provide gloves, tools, safety vests, and guidance on how to safely complete our tasks for the day. Before the event, registrants are required to complete a liability waiver and photo consent form (
Adult form here
 and 
Minor form here
).
Meetup Location: 
We will be meeting at Plank Road, 48-01 58th Road in Maspeth, Queens, at 11am.
Plan ahead for the event: 
Please wear weather-appropriate clothes, sturdy shoes, and bring your own water bottle and sunscreen if need be. We will have water and snacks on hand for volunteers. There are no bathrooms on site. If you are unable to attend, we ask you to please release your spot at least one day in advance.
