Around the Valley

Railroad Cleanup +  

Rotarians getting ready for cleanupSeptember 25, 2010 (Cottage Grove)

Today, a number of club members participated in the River Celebration and Work Party, cleaning up litter on a stretch of train tracks between the incinerator in the Trailhead park down to 4th Avenue. Although not technically a "river cleanup", we were joined by a number of volunteers from other organizations to make a serious improvement along the tracks.

The cleanup was in collaboration with the Coast Fork Willamette Watershed Council, the Friends of Mt. David, The Cottage Grove Vision Keeps, the City of Cottage Grove, and Stop Oregon Litter and Vandalism (SOLV).

Meeting Schedule

We meet the FIRST and THIRD Thursday of each month at 7am meeting at Café Sheilagh, 1043 Hwy 99 N in Cottage Grove. There's ample parking in front and in the adjacent parking lot to the north, the meeting space can hold up to 50, and we'll be able to order breakfast off the menu. See you there!
