This would have been the 18th year of Project AWARE, A Water Awareness River Expedition.
Sadly because of the Covid , it won't happen.
An amazing group of participants, that spend a week, in July cleaning up one of our river systems, here in Iowa, from canoes..
Brian Soenen, the originater of this great event, along with his staff, make it possible to clean about 50 miles of rivers in our state. As many as 400 individuals, some just for a day, gather incredible amounts of trash, and 80-90 % of it is recycled.

I will miss this group, as most of the participants have become great friends ! I've been fortunate to join them for 15 yrs, and will dearly miss the group, this year !
