The Onondaga Lake Conservation Corps is looking for volunteers to participate in the 6th Annual Earth Day Cleanup on Saturday, April 26 from 10 a.m. to noon. Participants will pick up debris along Onondaga Lake’s southwest shoreline and learn from Audubon NY, Onondaga Audubon, and Parsons staff about the lake’s birds, other wildlife, and the importance of healthy habitats in the Onondaga Lake watershed. Volunteers should wear shoes or boots, long pants and sleeves, and bring work gloves. Plastic bags will be provided. The event will take place rain or shine. Volunteers will meet at Honeywell’s Onondaga Lake Visitors Center, 280 Restoration Way in Syracuse, and then drive a short distance to Harbor Brook. The 6th Annual Earth Day Cleanup is sponsored by National Grid. Space is limited and registration is required for the Earth Day Cleanup.

We look forward to working with dozens of volunteers and having a huge impact that will benefit Onondaga Lake’s nesting Bald Eagles, waterfowl and other wildlife.”  Greg Craybas An earth Day cleanup on Onondaga Lake is planned for April 26. ...read more read less
