Thanks to all the volunteers who helped make Saturday’s cleanup a huge success. A total of about 314 pounds of nasty trash was pulled out of the river, which gave a sigh of relief.
As your writer did not witness nor participate in this cleanup, he is still gathering bits and pieces of information and extends apologies for resulting errors.
Reports give the following as participants, plus two more unnamed:

I no longer live on my beloved river due to personal loss. However when I did love there, in Wilson Springs & Three Rivers we cleaned the river daily. And especially after holidays there would be massive amounts of trash, tubes & clothing left behind. Thank you to all of you for caring & continuing to keep our rivers clean.
It was a great day with amazing people! We did something wonderful for mother nature and ourselves, all while sharing our message! Can’t wait for the next one!
