Attention everyone who enjoys a litter free and pristine Center Hill Lake! The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Hurricane Marina are hosting the annual Center Hill Shoreline Cleanup, and are seeking volunteers that want to make a difference!
This year’s cleanup is scheduled for Saturday, April 21, from 9:00 AM. – 1:00 PM at Hurricane Marina. Volunteers will be provided gloves and garbage bags, and be taken by boats to designated areas along the lake. Volunteers should wear work clothes and sturdy footwear and, depending on the weather forecast, pack rain gear . . . just in case.
AND…because no good deed should go unrewarded, breakfast and lunch will be provided to all volunteers.
All participants are encouraged to pre-register for the cleanup by calling the Center Hill Lake Resource Manager’s Office at (931) 858-3125. Pre-registration will help planners prepare the proper number of lunches and select desired lakeshore cleanup areas. Day-of registration will begin at 8:30 AM at Hurricane Marina.
Sponsors for this year’s cleanup include: Hurricane Marina, JBeez Watercraft/Canoe the Caney, Hydro Hoist of Middle Tennessee, Middle Tennessee Houseboats, Big Fish, Southern Boat Club, Executive Choice Boat Cleaning, Center Hill Boat Repair, Motor Works Machine, and Blue Water Grille.
