Operation Pride
Watchung Borough held the annual Operation Pride on Saturday, May 1, 2021. Starting at the Texier House Museum, Neighbors, scouts, school children, the Knights of Columbus, and council members volunteered their time to clean up the town.
The back of the Texier House was the starting place for the volunteers, with each person receiving a Clean Communities T-Shirt, gloves, a mask, hand sanitizer, and a garbage bag. Major areas focused on during the cleanup included the Watchung Lake, Stony Brook, Mobus Field, Somerset Street, and Bayberry Elementary School.
This event was organized by the Watchung Borough Traffic and Beautification Committee. The Watchung Borough CERT Team and Environmental Commission also participated.
