Earth Day Village Cleanup

Each year villagers meet at the West Barnstable Community Building to celebrate Earth Day by picking up litter of all kinds from their neighborhoods and beyond. We enjoyed a successful day on April 18th for our Annual Village Cleanup. More than 30 people were there to help. The sunshine brought out family and friends from West Barnstable and beyond. We would like to thank everyone for their hard work. We also thank and appreciate organizers extraordinaire, Marissa Caney and Tony Lovell who did a wonderful job. So many great volunteers!
