Cleaning Historic Bread And Cheese Creek
This document summarizes the efforts of the Bread and Cheese Creek organization to clean sections of the historic creek through organized volunteer events. It describes several cleanups between 2009-2011 where volunteers removed large amounts of trash, debris, shopping carts, tires, and other materials. The organization is seeking more volunteers and donations to continue their efforts to remove trash from the creek and prevent it from polluting the Chesapeake Bay.
