Can you help us put our best face forward by helping to clean Herring Run Park before the November 19th 5k? It would be really great if we could showcase our beautiful park to the hundreds of folks who visit it for Trot the Trail.

It would be helpful if you registered in advance for the cleanup at https://www.bluewaterbaltimore.org/eve…/trash-cleanup-11-11/ so we’d have an idea of what supplies to provide, but we’d love to see you, regardless!

Please register for a volunteer cleanup of
