28th Annual Volunteer Lakeshore Cleanup may be biggest ever

Organization is underway now. And Boat Drivers are urgently needed. The Green River Lakeshore clean up grows each year. Last year, more than 500 volunteers came to help, but they were handicapped by lack of boats to get them to and from clean designations. If you can help these volunteers clean up the lakeshore you enjoy so much, call 270-465-4463.
