The new booms last week sport this new sign. Here it is added to Mud Run.

To my knowledge (I certainly could be wrong) this is a first. Mark Greer of the Akron Bicentennial Commission, Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition, Dan Rice and his Team, City of Akron and Riverkeepers Ohio have put together a plan that will truly leave the waterway cleaner when we are done than what is there…
4 bags about 80 pounds. These locations keep trash from making it into the Tuscarawas River.
This will help in our efforts at this location! BTW #RiverkeepersOhio will be here Sunday doing some work on the booms and cleaning out trash. #bagoftrashaday
Managed to pull a couple bags of trash out and plan for more in the morning. Some areas capturing more than others but all are doing the job. Encampments are still active and growing notifications have been sent again. The big wheels move slow, patience.
Flooding and ice broke the boom away as designed several weeks ago and today finally had the opportunity to put it back to work. Note, I do not have to get in the water for any of this, even when I forgot to hold the trow rope when I sent it sailing to the far…
