Volunteers needed for land and water clean ups across Horry County.
The Governor’s South Carolina Floodwater Commission in cooperation with Horry County, the City of Conway, and the City of Loris will be sponsoring a cleanup day in Horry County on Friday, November 8, 2019. The cleanup activities include both land and waterways (boat) and will be coordinated from 4 regional work sites within the county.
The Horry County Service Day will focus on clearing drainage ditches, culverts, canals, streams and waterways in the area. The work plans include clearing trees, limbs, trash, and debris, and removing accumulated sediment. Three of the four regional work sites will include watercraft cleanup in the Waccamaw river and adjacent waterways where debris is hindering the free flow of water. Volunteers with boats/watercraft are encouraged to attend and bring their boats.
The meeting locations for the four Horry County regional work sites are:
Conway (Conway City Marina)
Bucksport (James R. Frazier Community Center)
Socastee (Socastee Park & Yacht Basin Landing)
Loris/Longs (Town of Loris Recreation Department)
Cleanup Activities are scheduled for 9:00 am – 2:00 pm (Registration – 8:30 am).
