Dear Sir:
I think it is unfortunate that citizens throw tljeir trash wherever they happen to be whether it is in the river, on the highway, or what-have-you.
I don’t throw trash anywhere. Can’t even bring myself to toss down a paper cup on a carnival ground. I am, however, not above picking up trash and usually do in my front yard after a weekend. I do not think it sad that only a few local people joined the canoists in the river clean-up. There are not many of us, including me, who own a canoe and accessories, or know how to use one. It was a little too chilly for most folk to wade the stream that Sunday and retrieve trash.
Unashamed
