The Port O’Connor community came together once again on Saturday, April 20th, for the 2nd annual Boggy Nature Park & Beach clean-up. County commissioner, Kenny Finster, county employees, L’Roy and John and over 50 volunteers including youth from the local Port O’Connor 4-H Club worked from 9am -12 noon under the direction of Speedy Stop Mgr., John Hribek and wife Leeanne, and Virgil and Ursula Price, organizers of the event. The volunteers collected a dump truck full of debris and trash. Volunteers were treated to a hotdog and chilli lunch.

Thank you volunteers for doing your part in Keeping Boggy Clean and Beautiful!
