- Give a morning of your time on Saturday, April 26 for our Spring Cleanup of Ramp, Roadsides and Shoreline: 9 AM to Noon, State Boat Ramp, Torrey Road, Sutton. Start with coffee and donuts, work with neighbors and friends, and end the morning with the satisfaction of a job well done! Rake, pick up paper, boat the shoreline... it's better than a morning at the gym!
