Join the “movement” for an expanded April Stools Day Clean-up Event and help clean up a winter’s worth of unscooped poop. Traditionally held on Portland’s East End, Friends of the Eastern Promenade and Fetch (www.fetchportland.com) have invited other neighborhoods to unite in this years clean up efforts.

Along with East End Beach and Park, including the Eastern Prom Trail, other locations include: MHNO/Munjoy Hill; Fort Sumner Park, Reiche School/West End; East Bayside; St John Valley and Hinckley Park in S. Portland thanks to cooperation with the South Portland Dog Owners Group (www.sopodog.com). Belfast, ME and Charlestown, MA are also part of this growing event.
