Thank you to the 73 volunteers that took to the streets during April for Storm Drain Marking. You marked 383 storm drains and dropped off educational material to 1072 homes. You successfully reminded citizens that storm drains lead straight to the nearest ditch, creek, or waterway without being filtered. These dedicated volunteers from University of Toledo, Scout groups and other youth groups, worked in neighborhoods in Northwood, Ottawa Hills, Sylvania, Washington Township, Rossford, Oregon, Waterville and Holland as part of Global Youth Service Day. To help us all remember, a good rule of thumb about what should go down a storm drain is "If you wouldn't drink it, don't pour it!". If your group is interested in participating in Storm Drain Marking throughout the summer, please contact us to get scheduled. Thank you again to our dedicated volunteers.
