The townâs first Keep Bewnie Buena event, an expansion of the long-standing spring River Park Cleanup, drew about 150 people of all ages to pick up surface trash not just near the river, but throughout the town.
âThis year we opted to be more downtown, more centralized, and it worked out pretty well,â said BV Rec director Earl Richmond. âWe sent them out to about 15 geographical areas around town.â
In the days prior to the cleanup, a bright blue Chaffee County Waste dumpster was parked just off East Main in the South Railroad Street parking lot. On Sunday, volunteers of all ages filled that whole thing, all 30 yards of it, in the span of about 2 hours, Richmond said.
