22nd Annual GRL Lakeshore cleanupa success

By Larry Lemmon, Park Ranger

Thanks to the hard work of 301 volunteers and the support of 84 sponsors, the 22nd Annual Green River Lake Lakeshore Cleanup was another huge success.

On Saturday, September 20, 2008 approximately 217 bags of trash, 22 tires, 2 mattresses and 1 gas tank was picked up from the lakeshore with a cost savings to the government of over $17,617.53.



Volunteers at the event, consisting of students from Lindsey Wilson College and Campbellsville University, the Lindsey Wilson basketball team, Taylor County FFA, girl scouts, boy scouts, cub scouts, church groups and community members all worked along side one another for the common goal of a cleaner environment and enhancing the aesthetic appeal of Green River Lake.

After the cleanup, everyone that participated at the event was treated to a free lunch and prize giveaway provided by local businesses with approximately $1,365 worth of food items and $3,257 worth of prizes donated.
