036_50pctOn Saturday December 10 girls from Prince George Girl Scout Troop 553 led by Troop Leader Cindy Grebas cleaned up the trails along the river at Appomattox River Regional Park. Friends of the Lower Appomattox River (FOLAR) provided the bags, gloves and vests and instructed the girls in safety. The girls who participated were Dani Milam, Courtney South, Jade Hall, Brittany Grebas, Amanda Grebas, Camille Schoyer-Butler, Madison Bailey, Sydney Thomas and Elizabeth Rook. The young ladies were able to fill 8 trash bags along the 1 mile trail including bottles, cans, plastic and assorted trash. When the work was done they were rewarded with hot dogs cooked and provided by Jimmy Dailey, a former FOLAR volunteer of the year. Teaching youth to clean up our rivers is part of FOLAR’s education effort. Prince George Parks and Recreation picked up the trash from this groups effort.
