For the last 30 years, volunteers have been lending a hand with the Ottawa River Clean Up. The annual event gave over 100 people the chance to help keep one of the main waterways in our area free from trash.   People got gloves, trash bags, and were assigned part of the river to clean up, from Shawnee Township, through Lima, and all the way to Bath Township.   When you have a natural resource like the Ottawa River and an asset like Rotary River walk, city officials are glad to see people stepping up to take care of them.
