We’ll it’s becoming clear to me you don’t get up early on Saturday in February, grab a kayak and head to the lake to collect trash…….

We’ll this is the fun your missing…..

Was it cold, yes, was it wet, thankfully no just splashy, was it fun…..we’ll of course it was. Who needs July with warm air…. and warm water and the crowds, and I can assure you in July there will be not be hot Starbucks after the cleanup, just FYI.

Thanks to all our Volunteers on the ground and on the water, including our sister aas groups including  the  Unitarian Church of Dallas

And the BSA Troop 890

________________________________________________________

Let see, the spirit of teamwork???

The ability to clean the lake from

a kayak, on a rainy cold overcast winter day??

Or the ground crew, who  despite the wind and the crowd, (read in cute girls) still got after it for the group…….

Well…that’s exactly what you get when you have a Frat from UTD, a group of young go getters that has concerns for the environment and are willing to walk the walk, and not just talk!

These guys showed you can have lots of fun while out with your buddies

keeping the lake litter free, and at the same time, and without words expressing just how you feel at people who litter…

Thanks to all the good guys at CHI PHI for their help and support!

Next Public Clean up is February 13th 9am Jackson Pt WRL!

It was 20.2 degrees air temp and 31 degrees water temp so……

Thanks to Marvin, Steve, Brian Todd, and Grace ice covered WRL is a cleaner place. Colder maybe but cleaner for sure!  It hard to tell from this picture but the guys had to be ice breakers in the kayaks for this shot!

When we say kayaking is cool WE mean it!
