PROJECTS
Every month BIL members and friends select a different area to clean up. The BIL has an adopt-a-spot on Fifth St. and Long Creek in Buckroe. The BIL also participates in the Chesapeake Bay Foundation Clean the Bay Day and the International Coastal Cleanup. Follow us on Facebook for monthly dates. Just an hour of your time makes a big difference in our neighborhood and waterways.
