The 26th annual EGV Salt Creek clean up was held on Saturday July 11th. There were approximately 50 volunteers with the majority from local scouts. As the water was a bit deeper than usual due to the previous rains, Boy Scout Troop 95 was very adventurous and walked in the creek cleaning out man made debris while the rest of the volunteers walked along the shoreline cleaning up. A large pile of trash was collected and bags were filled with all types of garbage.

This was one of the largest cleanup groups this annual event has drawn in several years. A hearty thank you to all volunteers for a job well done. Sincerely,

Nick Nikola, President SCWN
