<ul>
<li><span style="font-size:14px">Thousands of cigarette butts</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size:14px">Hundreds of food wrappers and takeout containers</span></li>

<li><span style="font-size:14px">89 plastic shopping bags</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size:14px">300 beverage bottles</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size:14px">We also found some odd things, including discarded clothing, a hand bilge pump and a striper rack all the way up by the Mill Pond. <br>
<br>
Some may feel discouraged by all the trash left behind, but the fact that we had so many dedicated people come out to clean up on a wet a dreary day shows we <em>can</em> make a difference. More cleanup events to come!

Members of the local media were also in attendance. Our director, Ryan Mann, gave a lively presentation, including a brief history on how the river was geologically formed, what its ecological significance is, and what can be done by all of us to change its current ecological decline. We ended the evening with attendees signing up to help with four specific projects.<br>
<br>
<strong>RiverWatchers-</strong> Expected to be launched next spring, FOBR is now recruiting community members to assist the Town in collecting data from May through September. <br>
<br>
<strong>Administration-</strong> FOBR needs help organizing files, inputting data, website work, and more.<br>
<br>
<strong>Events- </strong>Organizing a public gathering of any size takes more than a few hands. From planning and distributing flyers to helping with setup and break down, many hands make light work.<br>
<br>
<strong>Photos-</strong> Inspiring others to join the mission is a major part of our small organization. Lending pictures to FOBR to help tell the story is a powerful and easy way to help us. Please email your pictures to <a href="mailto:Rmann@firendsofbassriver.org?subject=Photos" style="color:#00add8;font-weight:normal;text-decoration:underline" target="_blank">Rmann@friendsofbassriver.<wbr>org.</a> </span><br>

<strong>Friends of Bass River,</strong> a fund of the Cape Cod Foundation, is a group of faithful private citizens dedicated to the guardianship of the ponds, coves and sub-basins of the Bass River Estuarine System. Our mission, through monitoring, vigilance and direct management, is to help preserve and protect Bass River’s delicate ecosystem. As one of the largest and most beautiful waterways on Cape Cod, the Bass River is under an increased danger from elevated nitrogen levels that, if allowed to continue unabated, will further damage and may even permanently alter coastal life as we now know it.<br>
