To mark International Day of Action for Rivers, volunteer students from Palmyra High School and members of the AmeriCorps New Jersey Watershed Ambassadors Program descended on Fort Motts State Park in Pennsville earlier this month for a much needed cleanup.
Among the items discarded included wood planks and pallets, plastic buckets, a long-lost buoy, an old TV, a kiddie pool and many bags of trash.
