This year\u2019s clean-up is scheduled for Saturday, April 5.<br \/>\nLast year over 70 people participated in the clean-up and the hope is that even more will volunteer this year.<br \/>\nThe goal is to remove as much trash as possible, large or small, from in and along the river. This includes roadside pullouts and the riverbanks.<br \/>\n\u201cThe more (volunteers) we can get, the more miles of stream and parking areas we can clean-up,\u201d said LJRA President Bill Anderson.<br \/>\nIn 2007, in coordination with the Great PA Cleanup and the National River Cleanup, trash was collected along the riverbank from Spruce Creek to Tyrone Forge.<br \/>\nInterested persons and groups, including Scouts, meet and work throughout the morning, cleaning the river and surrounding areas. Everyone is invited to participate and more information will be available as the clean-up date approaches.<br \/>\nAlso, for anyone interested in becoming involved with the LJRA, there are free hats and new logo decals available for all new members. The items are also available for those paying current year dues.<br \/>\nAll funds collected are used to defend the Little Juniata River.<br \/>\nHats and logos can be mailed out or picked up at the next meeting.<br \/>\nExtra hats are available for $15 and logo decals are $1.50.<br \/>\nInterested individuals can find out more about the Little Juniata River Association by visiting the website at www.littlejuniata.org.<br \/>\nTo join, send information to: Juniata River Association, RD3 Box 468E Altoona, Pa. 16601.
