Over 60 volunteers braved a wet and blustery Saturday morning to conduct a special clean up effort on September 19. The Cass River was especially low due to construction of the Fish Passage project, which required temporarily dropping the water level upstream of the dam.
The Cass River Greenway Committee and the Frankenmuth Parks and Recreation Department teamed up to sponsor this once in a lifetime opportunity to pick up trash from the exposed riverbanks.
Volunteers were divided into five teams and they walked the riverbanks from Tuscola downstream to the Frankenmuth Covered Bridge. Overall the group removed approximately eight cubic yards of trash and another six cubic yards of steel and tires.
