What happened to all the positive pictures?

I'll make a cleanup and maybe after I can take you on a kayak paddle and show you all our super duper restricted zones on our new CRA/DIA in the USA 4.8 mile area.

Here are some great shots from the monthly cleanups on McCoys Creek. They are hosted by the Rising Tides, Jacksonville Jaycees, North Florida Land Trust, and Keep Jacksonville Beautiful. The next clean up is set for May 19th at 9am. We will meet near the intersection of Stockton and McCoys Creek Blvd. No registration needed. Wear close-toes shoes and waterproof boots if you are able. Bags, gloves, and hand tools will be provided. Kayaks Welcome!

WOW!! 

What an awesome group of dedicated people doing a great job of cleanup.  Scary that there was such an accumulation of trash in the waterway.

I am literally disgusted with how much trash is in that picture. It is a shame that it was allowed to get that bad in the first place. I give a lot of props to those taking the time to take care of this area. I might try and swing by during the next one and say hello to the group if time permits you all deserve a congratulations.

It wasn't Hogans Creek but the 5/18/14 McCoys Creek cleanup had me kayaking a couple of 100' and at the end it is safe to report that the groups that are cleaning up this Waterway can use the 1970's Coke jingle "It's the Real Thing." when talking about their cleanup efforts.

Enjoyed seeing some old friends and meeting some new ones. Shannon did a great job of welcoming and supporting everyone that participated. Sarah and Dunncan you guys rock.

The ICC cleanup will be happening tomorrow throughout our community and I'll be at Hogans Creek behind the Jacksonville Historical Society Building and Casket factory. I'll be bringing a kayak and the fishing poles. Caught a red last year during the cleanup.
It is 9-11 and as Vivian Harrell would say "Hogans Creek, it's not a fluff site."
A positive event.
