April 24th-The Boyne Estuary Clean-Up

Part of National Spring Clean Drogheda Tidy Towns is organizing a spring clean-up event at Baltray – River Boyne Estuary.

We will meet at Queensborough car park which overlooks the mouth of the River Boyne near Baltray, a couple of KMs from Drogheda town centre.

Date: Sunday, April 24th

Time: 10.30 AM to 1 PM

Meeting Location: Queensborough – Baltray Road

– Volunteers are asked to wear wellies or old shoes, and old clothes as it can get muddy in the estuary.

From Baltray you can view shallow lagoons, which are a haven for rare birds including little terns and little egrets. Louth Nature Trust runs a conservation project on Baltray beach each year from May to August to protect the nests of the little terns.

We would love to see all our amazing Drogheda Tidy Towns volunteers and community groups out in full force!
