International Coastal Cleanup

On October 8th, a number of area youth and Boys & Girls Club Members helped to clean-up along the river banks at the Fishing Wall and at Paddlewheel Point and along Marne Creek. The National Park Service, Army Corps. partnered with KYB for this very important cleanup event!

Volunteers near Gavin's Point Dam collected a lot of old fishing line, cans, bottles and glass and cigarette butts from our shoreline!

Following a safety briefing and important River education talk by the National Park Service, volunteers were ready to go clean!

Huge "Thanks!" go to Godfather's Pizza, Pizza Ranch and Pizza Hut for donating pizzas to these dedicated, hard-working kids! Do you know what food is environmentally friendly?! Pizza--the only residue is a recyclable cardboard box--which we took to the transfer station along with plastic bottles and cans that were gathered at Paddlewheel Point and along Marne Creek!
