On Saturday, November 16, 2013, we sponsored another stream cleanup at Marumsco Creek in Veterans Park. The Prince William (PW) County Parks and Recreation Department, Neabsco Action Alliance, Keep PW Beautiful, and PW Soil & Water Conservation District all partnered with us for the cleanup. Sixty volunteers came out to help clean up trash around the creek.
