The Acorn E-news: September 2024
Hits: 32
Check out the September 2024 Edition of The Acorn e-newsletter for volunteer opportunities, upcoming events and updates from NICHES.With 24 volunteers attending, this was also NICHES largest creek cleanup crew in our organization's history!
On Friday, August 30, NICHES hosted a cleanup of Wildcat Creek with volunteers from Caterpillar Lafayette! This is the third year in a row that Caterpillar volunteers have returned to remove trash between NICHES Peter's Mill Access Point and Davis Ferry on the Wabash River. This stretch of the Wildcat Creek often receives upstream trash during high water events throughout the year. In addition to removing 16 tires and 1,000+ pounds of trash, the volunteer crew also helped cut out log jams using hand tools.
Thank you Caterpillar Lafayette volunteers for all of your hard work making Indiana's longest scenic waterway healthier and safer for everyone to enjoy. Special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Tire in West Lafayette for donating their tire recycling services for this event!
