Cleaning the Nolichucky
Area residents joined the Appalachian Paddling Enthusiasts group on June 23 for the 11th annual Nolichucky River Cleanup and Celebration. Participants removed debris from the river and its banks all day, but still managed to have a little fun while they were at it. At left, clockwise from left, Syngine Jeffers, Tyler Hurst, Sergel Bolen and Philden Cooper help with the cleanup effort.
