Norris Shores 
2008 Community Clean-Up
Lookin’ Good 

Norris Shores is looking good thanks to the annual clean-up. Clean-ups were held on three Saturdays in March. It was cancelled one weekend due to cold temperature and snow.
There was less debris along the roadways this year because Powell Valley Electric Cooperative apparently chipped some of the tree trimming last year in contrast to prior years.


In addition to the roadway clean-up, the volunteers spruced up the flower garden near the marina gate and retrieved debris in various areas along the shoreline.



All in all, the volunteers picked up over 50 bags of trash, 8 tires, 4 barrels, large pieces of styrofoam, a large water tank and other debris.

Our thanks go to the 22 people who participated in the clean-up this year. These volunteers provided approximately 250 hours of services over the course of the clean-up. Unfortunately, participation was down this year. Nevertheless, with the exceptional effort of Laurie Oppel, who lead the clean-up, and the many others involved, we were able to make a real improvement in the appearance of our community. Special thanks to the few dedicated volunteers who showed up every Saturday.  

The clean-up helps the entire community including enhancing the value of undeveloped properties. Plan to participate next year on at least one weekend.
