The Nashville Clean Water Project will host another volunteer cleanup of Percy Priest Lake on Sept. 24.
The cleanup from 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. aims to tackle 22 sites, cleaning up debris and garbage caused by the May 2010 flood, recent rainfall, and careless campers and people who dump their garbage along the lake. Organizers expect this year’s cleanup to be the largest in the event’s history.
The cleanup will be organized at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers headquarters at 37-01 Bell Road. Volunteers must register ahead of time at http://www.cleanpercypriest.org/ and will receive a free T-shirt and lunch. The event will proceed rain or shine, absent dangerous weather.
Come on out and Help!
