September 19 was the 25th anniversary of Coastal Clean-up Day, an annual event with a goal to pull out as much trash, debris and recyclables as possible from the nation’s waterways, lakes and ocean beaches. STFNA provided the coordination for cleanup of the Canoas Creek between Blossom and Lean Avenues. We had 30 volunteers cleaning two sides of the 1.4 mile stretch of the creek. 520 pounds of trash and 38 pounds of recyclables were collected. This was the largest Cleanup Day ever for Santa Clara County with a total of 35 cleanup sites, 59 miles of creek cleaned and collection of a total of 23,173 pounds of trash and 7,499 pounds of recyclables. A big thank you to all who volunteered for this effort!
