Volunteers needed for Hancock Clean Up May 9

HANCOCK -- Hancock Clean Up Day is tomorrow, Saturday, May 9. Volunteers will meet at Jim's Pizza at 8 a.m. for a free buffet breakfast. Free gloves will be provided for the first 50 people. The City of Hancock will furnish free garbage bags for all. Areas will be assigned for pickup.

At 9 a.m., following the breakfast at Jim's, Keweenaw Nordic Ski Club volunteers will clean around the chalet and the sand pit not too far from the chalet. In case you arrive late, the sand pit is at the top of Sisu Hill which is the climb out of the Gorge at the downstream end of the River Trail; from the chalet just go through the fence onto the trails and take the first marked trail to the left.

Volunteers are simply asked to help as long as they can stay. Anyone with questions on the ski club part of the clean up may call Jay Green at 487-5411.

Hancock Clean Up Day is sponsored by the City of Hancock, Hancock Downtown Development Authority and the Hancock Professional Businessperson Association.
