FOCHL alongside with U.S Army Corps of Engineers, Keep Smith County Beautiful and the surrounding communities are coming together on November 15th for our 3rd annual Lake Shore Cleanup. “I encourage everyone to join in on making our lake cleaner. Bring a friend, gather the family, and invite your church or club. If you can’t attend the lakeshore cleanup, please take a moment on Veterans Day in your own community and pick up some trash from our roadways. Everything we see on the side of the road leads to our creeks and finds its way into our beautiful lake. Every small thing we do matters.”
As part of the necessary preparations for winter and spring rains, each October, the USACE lowers the water in Cordell Hull Lake, which often results in plastic bottles and trash washing up on the shores. The cleanup event will be held at Wildwood Resort & Marina in Granville at 9:00 a.m. Participants will be divided into groups to focus on specific coves in the area. You are welcome to bring your boat or kayak and aid from the water. Trash bags and gloves will be provided.
The Community Lakeshore Cleanup will begin at Wildwood Resort & Marina 7316 Granville Hwy, Granville, TN 38564
- 8:00 – Light Breakfast
