Tomorrow we (our Boy Scout Troop) will be on the banks of the Tennessee River helping to clean the garbage that collects on the banks. This is an annual event hosted by Ijams Nature Center and many other sponsors. They take a 50 mile shoreline and section it up and assign each group to an area. This is a great way for the boys to see how the trash that is thrown out adds up. Most people think, "Oh, it is just a little bottle. It won't make much difference." It all adds up along with the huge things that are also found: ie. tires, barrels. If you would like to get involved come and join us!
