A successful cleanup was declared by Chairman Russell York who reported that ten boats, two jet skis, and three collection stations of volunteers filled a commercial-size dumpster with trash collected from the river at the annual Friends of the River San Bernard Cleanup on Saturday, Sep 13th.

Thanks to all the hard-working volunteers who care enough about the San Bernard to participate in this important FOR event that made the river a cleaner, healthier and more beautiful place to enjoy.
