The cleanup effort ended for the season on May 2, 2010. It will resume again in November.
A huge thanks to everyone who helped this season! Also, a big thanks to Waste Management for the use of a roll-off dumpster!
So far we've recycled 7 tons of metal, two and a half tons of wood, one ton of tires, 7 tons of concrete and numerous large boxes of glass and plastic. In addition, we've filled four large roll-off dumpsters with trash.
It's looking considerably better, but there's still much work to be done.
