RIVER CLEAN UP
Gather at Myoden Station (Tozai Line) outside the only ticket gate,
and
then go to the Edogawa River and pick up trash along the banks for
about 3.5 to 4 hours.

INFO
If you come late, it will be about a 25-min walk to our location
behind
 Clean Center (incineration plant) and the Clean Spa. First walk
to the
 Myoden Bridge, cross it, and enter the riverside path on the
embankment.
Then head in the direction of Tokyo Bay until you see us
along the water
line. Also call James (the organizer) cell phone
090-1847-5075 if there 
are any problems finding us.

RAIN
In the event of light or medium rain this event will NOT be cancelled
as we will move to and from the river by car and we can clean up
under
cover the bay front bridges as a Plan B as well as adjacent
areas.
 In 
the event of heavy rain/strong winds (e.g., typhoon
conditions) or
 lightning then the event will be cancelled.

Let’s have fun enjoying our local nature while making it better at 
the
same time.
