Team Penobscot assists in Brewer Stream Cleanup Project

 

5/12/12 For the fourth year in a row members of the Penobscot Job Corps Academy community participated in the City of Brewer Stream Cleanup project.  Nine crews totaling about 150 volunteers, including AISO Ron Drake and seven PJCA students fanned out in Brewer, Maine. Some spent the morning picking up trash along the Penobscot River from Eddington south to Orrington, while others were in areas such as the Sedgeunkedunk Stream, railroad tracks, the entrance and exit ramps around the Wilson Street-Interstate 295 intersection, the industrial park, Dirigo Drive and other areas where trash tends to build up. According to organizer’s Saturday’s cleanup more than likely surpassed last year’s 5 tons of trash!!
