Many residents around Lake Havasu City have a goal to have the cleanest lake on the Colorado River. So, they have banned together to pick up all the trash left behind by visitors and other careless residents.
You know the old saying, "One mans trash is another mans treasure?" Well, that's not always true and, in this case, it would be great if everyone would trash their trash. The lake would be beautiful all the time without the unnecessary litter around it.
Cleaning up the lake will become a monthly process for the Chemehuevi Tribe, the Lake Havasu Marine Association, and resident volunteers. Some of the last clean up volunteers included Mayor Mark Nexsen, Dean Barlow, Don Callahan, the Lake Havasu Yacht Club, Lakeland Marine, Tantrum Motor Sports and several others.
Trash prevention will start with more trash cans around the lake and additional dumpsters. There are several there already, but people just need to use them. Hopefully, through publicity, people will start to pay attention to what they are leaving behind.
Lake Havasu City is a beautiful place to live, work and play, so let's help keep it that way.
