Message from the Chairman
Howdy y'all,
TrashFest '07 was a resounding success! We had perfect weather and 294 participants on 42 teams. All told, we weighed in 4353 lbs of trash from the river, and counted another 7215 cans, plus 229 shoes and sunglasses. The participation figure is a record for this decade, and the shoes and sunglasses number was the highest count in 10 years!
The winners in each category were:
Congrats to all of our winners!
A BIG thank-you to everyone who played a part in this year's TrashFest - the volunteers who put in countless (unpaid!) hours, the sponsors who were extremely generous, and all of the participants who turned out and made it a fantastic TrashFest.
We're looking forward to TrashFest '08. Mark your calendars - it'll be on Oct 4, 2008
