94 volunteers between the ages of six and eighty-plus collected 54 33-gallon bags of trash, 26 bags of recyclable material plus carpets, broken furniture, tires, plumbing fixtures, rotting boards and other detritus from our roadside, riverfront and ditches. And that’s just what we could reach.
To the best of my knowledge this was also the first time that our Mayor and entire City Council (with the exception of one whose wife was having surgery) joined in. There’s something truly wonderful about seeing our elected officials come together to throw their efforts behind an event such as this. I think that I can hear our river breathe just a bit easier right now. Thank you, everyone!
