KTMB / Peavine Clean Up

 

 We had a good turn out of mountain bikers at the Kiowa Pond site on the East side of Peavine.  We started with some flap jacks at 3 Trees and then met at the starting point promptly at 8:30 am.  At first glance the area did not look to bad, but the deeper you dove, your bag soon filled up as well as the accompyning pick ups and  trucks. 

Thanks to those below we helped fill up three - 30 yard dumpsters with trash.  Kristi and her crew alone picked up and trailered out 18 tires !

Shawn O’Meara seen here with a living room and bedroom load (mattresses, couch, big screen tv’s) palettes, and misc. trash.

Wayne Mackey’s truck full again! This is in the Raleigh Heights area which still needs a lot of attention.  We’ll see if we can target this area next year.
