Rhonda Cummins reports 134 volunteers registered at Magnolia Beach for the spring Adopt-A-Beach clean up. They picked up approximately 2,500 pounds of trash. The photo above left, shows Teri Austin of Strictly Business and Rob Muil with GLO registering a group of participants from Calhoun High.
Debbie Gayle was in charge of the Port O’Connor clean up. There were twenty-nine volunteers including two boy scouts (see page 12) and three adults from POC, the National Honor Society from Victoria East, and Dudley Magnet School Math Club. They picked up 25 bags of trash, a bicycle wheel, wooden hatch cover, shovel, eleven cents, many fish bones, a skeleton of a duck, pair of reading glasses, and a huge rope entwined with wire. They finished the day with a hot dog lunch and all volunteers received a GLO frisbee.
The next clean up will be in September and Debbie is hoping for more locals to get involved.
