Beach Sweep 2007 |

On September 13, 2007 we went to the Arcadia beach. We picked up 17 pounds of trash. Kelly and I were in the dune grass. We found all the big stuff. Plus I was a picker upper with Kelly. All the big stuff was like pop bottles and cans. It was for the common good so the animals don't die and people don't get sick. So now people don't have to smell it or look at it. ...by Tighe |

2007 the third graders went to Arcadia to clean it up. We did it for our
community and the common good. We were the ones that got most garbage in
our class. Now it is better for the animals and people that go there. We
collected 17 pounds of trash. The highest number of things we collected
was cigarettes. I liked going because we saw lots of dead fish. ...by Austin |

| On Thursday September 13, 2007 the third graders went to Arcadia Beach. We cleaned the beach. We cleaned the beach for Great Lakes Alliance. We also did it for the common good. We collected 136 pieces of glass and 223 cigarette buds. I was a tally marker and a picker upper. If you were a tally marker you would write down what people picked up. If you were a picker upper you would pick trash up. I think it was a good idea to clean the beach because we can get hurt from stuff. It made me feel good. ...by Kiara |
