Lake Storey Clean Up Day this Saturday

If the winter is as cold and snowy as forecasts are projecting, it won’t be but a few months before Lake Storey begins to freeze over.

With the ushering of fall comes a Galesburg environmentally friendly tradition this weekend. The twelfth annual Lake Storey clean up day is this Saturday. 

A city news release says residents wanting to help clean up trash around the lake’s banks are encouraged to gather near the warming shelter near the east boat ramp. 

City staff will have trash bags and will provide direction on clean up. The event runs from 8 a.m. to noon. Volunteers are advised to wear boots and bring work gloves. 

The city’s park division and Knox College are working together to coordinate the event.
