Here's some results from some of the many community clean ups around Digby County this spring.
Thanks to everyone who helps make their community that much tidier. Especially those who quietly clean the ditch on their local stretch of highway or street, those who take a garbage bag with them for their daily walk, and especially especially those who put their trash where it belongs in the first place. Thanks to those who believe and act on the rule "If I don't pick this up, who will." April 24 – Fort Point: 350 kg May 14 – Culloden Wharf Road, DRHS students and Waste Check: 1.12 Metric Tons June 2 – final push on Sandy Cove beach: 2.84 MT June 8 – Boar’s Head clean up with NCC and ICS O2 students: 380 kg June 4 – Gulliver’s Cove beach, with Gulliver’s Cove Trails and DRHS students: 2.24 MT June 9 – Pond Cove beach on Brier Island: 2.58 MT June 12 – Marshalltown – Middle Cross Road (4.3km) – 409 kg P.S. Ever heard of plogging? (group jogging events where participants fill trash bags as they go) I wonder where a good plogging run would be most beneficial? let me know if you know of a trail or roadside that could really use a big group of ploggers to give it a go. jriley@municipality.digby.ns.ca
