Wildlife Refuge Clean-up

 

Please forgive any cross-posting

 

Bring your friends and come celebrate the 40th anniversary of Earth Day by
participating in the 5th Annual Lake Overholser/Stinchcomb Wildlife Refuge
Clean-Up on Saturday, April 24th beginning at 8:30a.m.!

 

We will be meeting at the Lake Overholser Pavilion  which is located around
N.W. 14th and E. Overholser Drive.  After the clean-up, BBQ from Earl’s Rib
Palace and hamburgers from the Cimarron Steak House will be available.
Pepsi will be providing beverages.

 

As in previous years, I hope to have items to raffle off.  If you would like
to donate something for the raffle, please contact me.

 

This is a great scout activity for those of you who are scout leaders.  The
clean-up is a qualifying activity for the Girl Scout’s Water Drop Patch
Project [http://www.epa.gov/adopt/patch/html/].   

 

This clean-up is also a great activity for biology and other school groups.
There is information for teachers about watersheds at:
http://www.epa.gov/adopt/patch/watershedpatch.pdf

 

This clean-up is part of the Great American Clean-Up (sponsored by Keep
Oklahoma Beautiful), Litter Blitz (sponsored by the City of Oklahoma City,
Oklahoma City Beautiful, and DEQ), the Oklahoma Trash-Off (sponsored by the
Oklahoma Department of Transportation for clean-up of part of historic Route
66) and the National River Clean-Up (sponsored by American Rivers for
clean-up along the North Canadian River in Stinchcomb).

 

Please let me know if you are planning on participating so I can make sure
we have enough food and beverages.
