American Water Company, Boy Scout Troop 1369 and their leaders, the Go-Green Club and other environmental conscious volunteers with children picked up 45 large bags of debris including five bags of recyclables, a real-estate sign and a large tubing frame at the Town of Occoquan.

The Lake Braddock Crew removed a 12-foot-long aluminum loading ramp, the kind that comes with a U-Haul rental truck, three large plastic toys (car for a child, a swing-seat, and a large sandbox cover in the shape of a turtle shell). One plastic 55-gallon barrel, two five-gallon buckets, and miscellaneous boards with exposed nails, two large garbage bags of recyclables such as bottles and cans, three plastic chairs and other odds and ends.
