9/10/16 Fall Bread and Cheese Creek Cleanup During and After Photos

On Saturday, 9/10/16 despite a very hot and humid day over 80 dedicated volunteers arrived at Bread and Cheese Creek and completely filled a 40 yard dumpster with trash and debris they removed from this historic stream and its bank totally over 4 tons!!! This included 214 bags of trash, a truck full of metal to be recycled, 12 smashed tomatoes cages, 4 tires, 3 bicycles, 3 shopping carts, a box spring with mattress, a hand truck, a couch, a powerweels car and much more! Thank you everyone so very much for all your incredible hard work under such tough conditions! Our volunteer dedication to working toward a cleaner, greener, healthier community and environment cannot be topped! Thank you so much!!!

 

We would also like to thank the Ocean Conservancy, American Rivers, Day to Serve, National Public Lands Day and Trash Free Maryland for all their assistance and support on this cleanup and to thank Chick-fila Eastpoint for their generous donations of food to feed all our hungry and hardworking volunteers!!! We also wish to thank Tradepoint Atlantic for your generous donations allowing is to purchase much needed supplies! We would also like to thank CCBC, Towson University, the U. S Navy and the community for all the incredible volunteers they supplied! Thank you also to Baltimore County Highways for supplying us with a dumpster!

 

We want to send a special Thank you out to Angel Ball and her Concerts in the Park Volunteers for stopping by our cleanup to present us with a very generous donation to help us park for our upcoming cleanups!! Thank you so much Angel! As an all-volunteer organization with no funding we rely on fundraisers t continue to clean up our community and environment. Thank you so very much again!!

 

We must apologize for the lack of photos of volunteers this time, but since we had no photographers volunteer for this even we were all too busy to take as many photos of our hardworking volunteers as we would have liked. If you are a volunteer photographer and would like to take pictures at one of our future events, please contact us – we could use your talent and we would love to have you!!! If any volunteers took photos during the day please send them to us – Thank you!!
