NC Big Sweep Service Project

On a rainy Saturday Oct. 7th, the youth event was our service project. Unfortunately, only two youth were able to participate. Advisors will create more opportunities for youth to do service in the near future. Our group participated in "NC Big Sweep" to remove trash and debris from Black Creek Greenway and its tributaries. Between the 5 of us we collected 7 bags of trash not including a tire, 2 basketballs, and a soccer ball. Amazing what ends up in the water around here. Anyway, one of our youth even put on waders and went in ponds after a tire. As usual we were very proud of our youth's effort in the project. We just wished more would have participated.
