Phil GB Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 I'm sure that Paul won't mind us making our own copies so long as he is getting the free advertisment. Great idea, maybe someone can work on a Spanish version...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CarpTart Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Good idea, but I don't want the locals to know my swims... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Pezalla Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 I cleaned up an stretch of bank on the Chicago River and posted a sign about 3 weeks ago. I have been back a couple of times since then and the sign is doing its job. It has not been torn down and the bank is remarkably free of debris. No beer bottles, no styrofoam worm containers and only a couple of short pieces on old line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Woerlein Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 The signs are a great idea! I think Gilbert Huxley was going to hang signs up at Salinda. Most people gathered bankside trash after the CAGI 2 weekends ago. We always try to make that a habit at Ohio Fish-Ins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmk00001 Posted July 6, 2004 Report Share Posted July 6, 2004 I'm really into keeping the banks clean and think I might give the signs a try. Me and Phil have hauled enough garbage off of riverbanks to fill a small landfill. Hopefully the signs will keep it in check. At Lake Orange in Virginia the guy who runs the concession there and the local law enforcement officials really like us, a big part of that is that we always leave the bank cleaner than when we arrived. Its amazing how much good will can be generated when you pick up a little trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
