From The Friends of Morgan Powell:

We are teaming up with the Bronx River Alliance to plant trees and shrubs along the Bronx River by Burke Bridge in memory of our beloved Morgan Powell. We will start planting at 9:00. If you interested, we are meeting up at 8:30 in front of 2515 Olinville and collectively walking to Burke Bridge. While we walk Julien Terrell will speak about our dear friend. Please help spread the word as we won’t pretend to know all of Morgan’s friends! Let’s do our buddy proud! Direction: please take the 2 train to Allerton and walk one block west if you want to meet us at 8:30, if not, take the 2 train to Burke and walk west to Bronx Park East to meet us at 9:00. Please dress accordingly!!!! At noon Stephen DeVillo and Mike Gupta will be hosting a walking tour as part of the Bronx River Alliance’s Bronx River Ramble.
