We teamed up with Boy Scout Troop 444 a couple of weeks ago to help clean up a stretch of Loch Raven Reservoir. With the help of some boys and past customers, we collected about 2 dozen contractor sized trash bags, a bunch of tires, car bumpers and some headlights. Amazing that some are willing to trash their drinking water.
It was such a success, we are planning on a monthly clean up. If you want to join in to help your community, just give us a call. We'll provide trash bags and drinks. If you know of a spot that needs clean up, let us know.
Hope to see you in February!

I am responding to "Community Clean up yields major haul". I am the Program Director for
ReplyDeleteGunpowder Valley Conservancy. I coordinate tree plantings and stream clean ups in the Gunpowder Watershed area. I would like to get in touch with the Scout group who is interested in cleaning up monthly. I can advise them on this issue. Please give them my contact information; they can email me at little-owl@msn.com and go to our website at www.gunpowderfalls.org for more information.
Thank you,
Peggy Perry
