The San Marcos River will receive a lot of attention next month when volunteers gather to participate in the Great Texas River Clean Up. In this Bobcat Update, David Cornwell tells us more about the event -- which is marking its 30th year.

The San Marcos River is known for its vibrant, clear and full of life feel and appearance. However, with some in the community not paying attention to where their trash goes, the river is in need of a major cleanup. The Keep San Marcos Beautiful Coordinator, Amy Kirwin, is seeking volunteers to help with this year's effort.

The goal for this year's clean-up extends beyond the river itself to include creeks and tributaries. Organizers say there is much to do.
SB –Amy
Students and local residents who spend leisure time at the river know all too well the importance of keeping it clean.

Volunteers will be needed at five different sites this year. The effort will not only clear the river of trash, it will also serve to educate people about how to conserve one of the city's valuable resources. For Bobcat Update, I'm David Cornwell.
