Disappointment
Trash everywhere! What a mess to greet a beautiful Monday morning.
A recent Sunday afternoon picnic group at the large
pavilion showed a blatant disregard for the care and maintenance of our
grounds. Not to mention the fact that the next group to use the
pavilion would find a noxious mess to clean up before beginning to
enjoy their picnic.
Trash cans are to be used for collecting points
only. Our critters love to demonstrate their skills in dumping and
spreading anything they find in those cans. One of our rules is that
you bag and dispose of all your trash. There are three (3) roomy
dumpsters , two of which are in close proximity to the large pavilion
for the disposal of your trash and other debris from your picnics and
other fun get-togethers. Please make use of them.

“It is axiomatic to say
there will be no hunting and no fishing unless we, the people, demand
conservation. We are not aiming at the European idea of conservation,
where there are great preserves for the use of a few individuals. What
we are striving for in this country is to preserve our animals, birds,
and fish so that the average American can get an opportunity for life
in the open.”
. . . . Theodore Roosevelt
