Volunteers needed for cleanup with Little River Chapter of Trout Unlimited

The Little River Chapter of Trout Unlimited (LRCTU) is partnering with Keep Blount Beautiful for a litter cleanup on Saturday, December 4th, 2021. Both organizations are seeking volunteers for the cleanup from 9AM-12PM.

Each year, LRCTU holds two cleanups on the stretch of Pistol Creek drainage where trout is stocked, one in the late fall before stocking begins and then a second in March after stocking is over.

Volunteers will meet at the Blount County Courthouse, 345 Court St. Maryville at 9AM. Volunteers will then be sent to various locations of the stretch to clean up litter. Litter pickers, gloves, garbage bags, and some waders will be provided. Volunteers are encouraged to wear clothes that can get wet and dirty, wear muck or rain boots, and bring their own waders if they have them.
