AWARDS AND ACHIEVEMENTS
2008 Watershed Celebration Day
Over 100 volunteers
attended Watershed Celebration Day
on Nov. 1. The group gathered at
the Clay Center in Charleston to
honor 19 watershed associations and
one individual for their hard work
and commitment in protecting and
restoring streams and educating
their communities about the
importance of watershed protection.
UGWA was honored with the Education
and Outreach Award.
Annual
Appliance Collection a Heavy Metal
Hit
October 11-13th, UGWA
staff, partners, and volunteers
contributed their time and muscles
in order to rid the watershed of
rusty junk. With the donated
services of volunteers and the City
of Mullens, interested applicants
could request that their junk be
hauled off. To encourage
everyone's efforts in bringing their
junk to the collection, a lifetime
hunting and fishing license was
raffled and subsequently won by the
fire department's, Bill Cook! This splendid
event resulted in a grand total of
around 30 tons collected and
disposed. Yet to be calculated is
the amount of funds raised to benefit
UGWA's work.
