ALGOMA, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – As Memorial Day weekend inches closer, a new beach-cleaning machine is hitting the Lake Michigan shoreline.
The City of Algoma bought a surf rake to help improve conditions at Crescent Beach.
On a busy summer weekend, the half-mile stretch of sand can attract about 300 people looking to cool off in Lake Michigan. But throughout the year, wind and waves can leave a mess.
Algoma Public Works Director Matt Murphy tells FOX 11 keeping up with the cleanup is an ongoing effort.
“We were able to come down here and and more or less what we had was a maintainer, or a groomer. We could put a nice finish on it, but it wasn’t picking up any of the garbage, debris, sticks, and stones. The driftwood that washes up.”
