N.C. Cooperative Extension-McDowell County Center's Keep McDowell Beautiful program will be coordinating the annual Lake James clean up on Saturday, May 1, 2021, from 8 a.m. to noon. We would like to invite everyone to remove litter from Lake James and its shoreline. During the past Lake James clean up events, volunteers from the Lake James Environmental Association, Marion Moose Lodge #1705, NC Wildlife Federation, residents of the Arbor on Lake James, and many others showed their commitment to beautifying their community by removing litter, trash, debris, and tires. Volunteers with boats, canoes, paddling kayaks, and on foot will be needed to help. Pre-register online To pick up supplies ahead of the event please contact Matt Burneisen, N.C. Cooperative Extension, McDowell County Center, Keep McDowell Beautiful – Matt_Burneisen@ncsu.edu or (828) 652-8104.
