More than 60 people, including a team of Boy Scouts from Troop 894 were out in force to help clean the riverbank at Horner Park. Saturday, May 10 had Horner Park as a key site in the Friends of the Chicago River's River Day Clean up. Teams of volunteers from the Chicago Conservation Corps, and Earth Tech employees from city and suburbs, as well as several committed neighbors converged on Horner for 3 hours of positive community spirit and service. A pile of garbage more than 15' x 15' was accumulated, including the remnants of an abandoned tent. Site Captain John O'Connell was pleased, adding "This is the best turnout we have ever had on River Day. It shows that being green is growing in our society as more people want to give back to the planet. Picking up some trash along the riverside is a great way to get involved, and help yourself feel good about your support of our neighborhood." |
