The group partnered with the Narrow River Preservation Association for this event. Over 20 TCS members and friends boarded kayaks with materials to collect plastic and other debris in this local waterway. The TCS leadership team ensured that all kayakers maintained appropriate social distancing and wore masks whenever participants were in close proximity to one another. Starting at 10am, participants collected trash along the coasts, around Sedge Island, under the Boston Neck Road (Route 1A) bridge, both sides of The Narrows, to the Narragansett Town Beach \u2013 where they dropped off approximately 30 pounds of trash to be properly disposed of.<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10081 aligncenter\"
