Mosett Burn Litter Pick

Forres,IV363TU

27 Jul 2012

23:00

The idea is to do a quick sweep of the burn from the Mosett Tavern to Orchard Road and then to do a full clear out from there to the Academy. We will meet on Saturday outside the Mosett Tavern by the duck pond. Interested parties should wear shoes with a good grip and bring rainwear etc. If they are over 18, can swim and have waders, then they are welcome to help clearing rubbish in the river. If it is raining on Saturday, we will still go ahead but will only work along the banks of the river .
