Two Wilmington-area advocacy groups are teaming up this Saturday to organize their final watershed cleanup of the year.
Cape Fear River Watch announced this week that is partnering with Keep New Hanover Beautiful for their Second Saturday Cleanup, which will take place from 9 a.m. until 11 a.m. in the Smith Creek Watershed at the intersection of Princess Place Drive and Evans Street.

The groups do not have a cleanup scheduled for December, and they encourage those interested to make sure not to miss this one.
The Smith Creek Watershed in Wilmington encompasses 13,818 acres and 55.2 miles of streams. It’s also home to about 26,000 people, according to county documents.
Parking Saturday is available at 2929 Princess Place Drive. Look for the CFRW cleanup signs.
The organizations said they will provide pickers, bags, safety vests, gloves, “and a good time.” They encourage participants to dress appropriately, bring sunscreen and water.
Participants should register online.
