About Nashville Clean Water Project

Our first cleanup in May 2008 was huge; the largest Nashville has ever seen! Together we’ve gifted more than 1,800 collective work-hours to the environment and filled six (6) of Waste Management’s commercial roll-off dumpsters with trash. Bottles, cans, plastics, coolers, tires, Styrofoam, chairs, BBQ grills, a full-sized traffic light, an office copier, a residential air conditioner, even a mannequin arm — all collected from Percy Priest Lake. Seriously, who takes a mannequin to the lake?Maxed out
All told, we’ve collected more trash than an average shopping mall produces in a month! Unfortunately, that’s also just 40% of the estimated surface trash at Percy Priest Lake. So please join us as we continue this very necessary public campaign against litter on Percy Priest Lake.
I will be there with bells on. I hike and fish in the Priest area often. I went fishing on 3-12 and the banks were filled with garbage. I Can’t wait for the details to be posted. The water is down on the west side of the dam, providing good access to waste that was previously under water.
Are jeans and tennis shoes adequate for this??
