A crew of volunteers responded to a call to help in the second annual trash clean up in the township on April 29. Yankee Springs Township Supervisor Mark Englerth said he was very happy with the turn out and the effort.
“This year we went further than we did last year when we spent 95 percent of our time in the township. This year, we went as far as Fish Lake in Orangeville Township and Daggett Lake, which I think is in Rutland Township. We also went to Middleville to the state game area there. Some of the volunteers worked more than 12 hours.”
Dumpsters were donated by the Barry State Game Area and Yankee Springs Township.
Englerth and his wife Janet and the Dauntless Jeep group split the cost of 20 pizzas and 100 bottles of pop that were consumed.
Submitted photos show what volunteers did during the day.
