Members of the Bethel Fire Department participated in the town wide Trashapalooza cleanup event this weekend.  Firefighters were assigned to the waterway behind Durant Avenue.  This was one of many clean ups in the region to commemorate Earth Day. The Newtown Lions Club hosted a "lose the litter event" this weekend in celebration of Earth Day.  Newtown Police, Newtown Cadets and Bethel Police were out on Currituck Road Saturday, with others out on many different roads throughout town.  The police group filled nearly 20 large garbage bags and completed the span of Currituck Road.
