CLEANUPS AT PUBLIC BEACH
|
Wayne Cotterly, Mike Limerick and Boy Scouts take pride in their work |
Not once, but twice this year, did we get
groups to clean up the Public Beach.
Poland Boy Scout Troop #125 proved to be a big asset. I’d met
Mike Limerick, the leader, at the Poland Town Meeting in April and
asked if they’d be interested in helping us. He was most agreeable
and, after a few calls, a date was firmed up. On June 22, Mike
and friend Wayne Cotterly brought five energetic youngsters to
help Doug Carbone and myself de-trash the beach. (All were intent
on gaining their public service badges.) |
The boys, Andrew Cotterly (11),
Ben Limerick (10), Stephen Limerick (13), Zach Hews (13) and Daniel
Roberts (10) cheerfully pitched in, picking up trash and hauling it
away. I hope we can count on them next year.. We truly appreciated their
help.
TLIA’s annual cleanup was held on Sunday, July 14,
at 9 a.m. when several members again picked up the beach. These helpers
were Joseph Kneeland, Jacqueline Misenheimer, Susan Carbone, George
Kelley and Babs Shapiro. Others, including Wendy, Charlotte and
Ben Webber, Jamie, Anna, Talia and Drew Rothfus, cleaned up other
areas of the lake. |
Clockwise: Joe Kneeland, Babs Shapiro, George Kelley, Susan Carbone
and Jacqui Misenheimer |
All in all, the lake has profited from the stewardship of these attentive,
dedicated people, and we thank them very much for their continuous efforts.
