On a rainy October Saturday morning chapter members William Holt,Lisa Krogh, Phil & Kay Ryan, David Benson, Shannon Schantz, Nancy Smith and Rob Adams met at Wild Rose park near the Black Canyon dam to pick up trash along a 3 1/2 mile section of highway 52.

A total of eight bags of trash was collected, along with parts of old tires, road construction stakes and an old muffler.

This year the water bottles out numbered the Keystone Lite cans. Nancy found a woman’s wallet with ID and credit cards which was turned into the Gem County Sheriff department.

This bi-annual trash pick-up is one of the many public outreach events the chapter holds each year. Consider joining us next year, it is both fun and worthwhile.
