St. Thomas Aquinas Student Athletes Take Part in Long Island Based ECC Team Up 2 Clean Up:

Members of the St. Thomas Aquinas track & field, softball, men’s tennis and baseball teams volunteered at the Sparkill Clean Up, an event organized by Keep Rockland Beautiful to help to clean the Sparkill Creek Watershed. The Sparkill Creek Watershed is an important part of St. Thomas Aquinas College as it runs through the campus and alongside Spartan Field.

The teams were split into work parties that covered different areas along the Sparkill Creek. The area ranged from the pier in Piermont to Routes 303 and 340 (which border the STAC campus) and down to Northvale, N.J. They cleaned garbage and debris that had piled along the creek and the surrounding areas. This benefitted the local water supply as it helped to eliminate pollution that would runoff into the stream. The Spartan student-athletes covered many miles over a three-hour span.
