Commission plans Earth Day cleanup and coordinates town events and speaker series scheduling
Summary
Commission set an Earth Day roadside cleanup for late April/May weekend, discussed coordination with recreation and schools for cleanup and field preparation, and noted a conservation panel in Hampton on Feb. 18.
The commission discussed community events and set a target for an Earth Day roadside cleanup on a weekend in late April (members suggested Saturday, April 26) with typical coffee-and-donuts refreshments. Commissioners said recreation groups that use town fields will be asked to perform their own cleanups and that the commission will coordinate a town-focused cleanup separate from field-user preparations.
Members noted a conservation panel at the Hampton Recreation and Senior Center on Feb. 18 (6 to 8 p.m.) featuring speakers from UNH Cooperative Extension, Seabrook Hampton Estuary Alliance, Coastal Watershed Land Conservation Manager and local landowners; commissioners agreed to repost the event notice on the commission's Facebook page.
The commission also discussed logistics for speaker events, including possibly starting meetings earlier for larger presentations and hosting joint sessions with other boards when interest is expected to be high.
