Creek Cleanup This Spring, Haywood EMC had the opportunity to “Adopt-A-Stream” along a section of Jonathan Creek with Haywood Waterways Association’s program. Part of the program includes organizing and hosting creek cleanups — the first of which Haywood EMC held in June. On June 11th, Haywood EMC employees gathered with community members to clean-up trash from this section of Jonathan Creek. Over the span of a few hours, over 250 pounds of rusted car parts, old yard
signs, several vinyl and plastic bags, and countless plastic bottles, tin cans, cigarette butts and more were cleaned from the creek. While this was the first of our clean-up events, we plan on hosting more in the future, so stay tuned for later event announcements!
