Welcome our newest #riverkeepersohio member Grant!
We hit the booms at Summit Lake and picked up a bag from the towpath. He earned his reward and shirt!!!
Update is: There was a very large trash dam upstream just south of Wooster Rd. There was a large volume of oil in that dam but where that originated from is not known. In collaboration, the City of Akron, City of Barberton and the OEPA put in a hard boom downstream, crews entered the water…
49 pounds of trash in 4 bags isn’t too bad for a 40 degree day in winter and this view was my reward!
This is our spoils from the south east side. Still more to do at this location but our booms will prevent much more from coming in as we keep cleaning. The crew here: Jennifer, Eric, Brad and Opa. Thanks for sharing your Saturday morning! Thanks to Tina, Julie Ann, Chris, Molly, Lilly, Sean, Crystal, Let’s…
…this is one of the things we do, clean our trash booms at Mud Run. 2.5 bags of trash, Chair, 5 Gallon bucket of something for close to 100 pounds. (Listen to the video for more details.)
46 pounds of trash from this spot today. This is a demonstration of how we do this after a rain event.
This is take 2 as the original video was lost. So very grateful for the support! Also in the video; Socks, River and Keeper. There is a whole story on the later kittens.
