Volunteers Help Clean Illegal Dump in Bald Eagle State Forest

On Saturday, March 29, 2003, fifteen volunteers worked together in the rain, to clean up an illegal dumpsite in the Bald Eagle State Forest. The group gathered one and a half tons of trash and scrap metal from the site along Route 235 near Shade Mountain.

Agway Energy Products of Lewistown donated the use of their crane truck to lift large items up the hill. Several appliances, furniture, construction debris, and over 40 tires were collected.

The event was cosponsored by the Forest Lands Beautification Program. The program was created to fund the cleanup of more than 200 dumpsites on State Forests and Park Lands.
