This past summer 24 volunteers have done a wonderful job of picking up litter along the roads surrounding Ten Mile Lake, along highways 6, 50, and 71. The result has been pretty, uncluttered roads as we all drive to and from our cabins. When you consider that the average pick-up is from one to four full trash bags on each individual's outing and that you'll always find new litter within an hour of completing your route, their good works have really helped keep these roads looking great. The pride and dedication these individuals show in keeping their areas of responsibility clean are really impressive. We thank you!

We'd like to recognize the impressive efforts of the following volunteers: Sandy Birkholz, Molly Bliska, Judy Bryngelson, Elaine Crabb, Janet & Cary George, Sally Helsman, Bob & Nancy Horn, Paul & Carolyn Krech, John McManus, Homer Olsen, Rod Owre, Sharon Peterson, Ken Regner, Don Willis, Phoebe & Sarah Alden, Jerry Mills, Bob Nelson, Don Patterson, and Larry Urbanski - along with Norm and Norma Telander, of Birch Lake, who also pick-up from a stretch of Lower Ten Mile Lake Road on their walks.

As usual, we can always use more help. If you're interested and would like to assist in this activity, call Dave Losby at 675-6066.
