Noble Canyon Watershed Cleanup May 2022

Saturday’s cleanup was a great success with 30+ volunteers from the Vernon Off Road Motorcycle Club, Vernon ATV Club and Vernon Fish and Game Club taking part as well as one member of the North Okanagan Cycling Society.

The effort was centered around the metal bin truck from ABC Recycling that Kane Blake from the OFTF organized to have on site for the heavy metal and the 40-yard bin that was donated and supplied by Randy Meier of LRM Contracting (also President of Vernon Fish and Game Club).
