Great Mississippi River Cleanup Photos

Over 40 volunteers, Friends of the Refuge Headwaters, Living Lands and Waters and Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge Winona District and Headquarters staff participated in the cleanup. The June 11 cleanup was launched from four boat landings covering 40 miles of river from Wabasha to Winona, MN. Four dumpsters and one dumptruck of trash was taken out of the river that day. Included in the photo is Friends member and Secretary Harold Ornes, the third person from the right in the first photo.
