THE KENTON CLEAN-UP JULY 2010.

2011/2012.

Rotary Kenton is planning on tackling the pollution in our rivers during 2011/2012. Watch this space.

Previous clean-ups.....

The Middle Beach Cleanup - October 2010.

For the past 30 years we have had to put up with the remains and the rubble from boat-houses from earlier times.

Rotary Kenton decided to tackle to job and to restore that section of the beach to it's natural state.

Brian Pachonick took on the task and removed three truck loads of building rubble.

The photos tell the full story. Thank you Brian and Rotary Kenton for a job well done.

The Big Kenton Cleanup......June 2010

In the space of two weeks, Leigh Fogarty has proved that where there is a will, there is a way. Together with a small team of only two laborers, Leigh tackled the huge problem of garbage and waste in Kenton on Sea.

Whilst on snare patrol, Leigh had noticed the vast amounts of litter and human waste collecting in the bush all over Kenton. His request for funds from Rotary met with a positive response and Leigh set about almost single-handedly removing massive amounts of rubbish from 5 pre-selected areas in Kenton.

The photos and street map below tell only part of the story. We leave the rest to your imagination. The map indicates the areas he has cleaned.

Area 1: Between Kenton Road / Butt Street / Ocean Ave and Beach Road yielded 41 bags of garbage.

Area 2: Between Oettle / The R72 / Northwood Road yielded 66 bags.

Area 3: Between River Road / Ocean Ave / Donkin Drive yielded 98 bags.

Area 4: Between Somerset, William way / Recreation yielded 46 bags.

Area 5: Opposite Robby's on the old commonage yielded 72 bags.

A total of 323 bags of garbage.

Surely the local authority should be maintaining the cleanliness of our village at all times?
