    Bayou Bartholomew Alliance Fall 2000 Vol. 7. Bayou Cleanups Dominate Fall Schedule The last two Saturdays in September served as the dates for volunteer cleanups in Jeffer- son and Lincoln Counties. On the 23rd a group of volunteers removed enough trash from the Ohio St. bridge area to fill two 16 ft. trailers 5 ft. high. There was so much trash that the cleanup had to be halted due to lack of room on the trailers. Another trailer load was removed from a site near the Jefferson/Lincoln County border on the 30th. Two future cleanups are scheduled in Drew and Ashley Counties as well. The Drew County cleanup is set for October 14th at 8:00 a.m.. It will take place at the bridge crossing Ables Creek near the community of Selma. Volun- teers are asked to meet at the old white church on Hwy. 293. The Ashley County cleanup is scheduled for October 28th at a site near Little Bayou WMA and Lake Grampus. Volunteers will gather at the community of Boydell on the west side of Hwy. 165 at 8:00 a.m. Anyone is welcome to attend the Bayou Bartholomew Alliance (BBA) sponsored clean- ups. The BBA does not have a “membership” in the traditional sense of the word. We consider our members to be all the people who live along the bayou as well as other interested parties from around the state and the nation. Essentially, anyone who cares about restoring and maintaining the beauty and health of Bayou Bartholomew is a member of the BBA.
