Reuben Thornton Cleanup

On April 6, volunteers will take to the highways and shorelines of Lake Martin to remove trash and debris. The Reuben Thornton Memorial Spring Cleanup is organized by the Lake Martin Resource Association, and aided by plenty of county, business and nonprofit organizations from around the lake area.

The event will begin at the Red Hill Community Center at 7 a.m. sharp, where pickers, vests and trash bags will be distributed to volunteers. Breakfast will be served before volunteers are scattered throughout various areas of the community to clean up roadsides and shorelines. At noon, volunteers will reconvene at the Lake Martin Mini Mall on Kowaliga Road for lunch and live music.
