What we can’t do alone–we can accomplish when others join with us.
There were many stretches of the river cleaned up on Sunday October 9th including areas around Proud Lake State Park, Mast Road, Tubbs Road, Hudson Mills to Dexter Huron Metropark, Barton Dam to Argo Livery, and the lower stretch around Ypsilanti. Items of interest found included 9 bikes, a television, traffic barrels, trash cans, mylar balloons, foam insulation, tarps, bowling ball, basketball, soda and beer cans, plastic containers for fishing worms and a kitchen sink!
