Chippewa Cleanup 2The Chippewa Creek is cleaner today thanks to students of Chippewas Raider Aid group.

7th grader Ivy Paul Says their goal is to promote the message of keeping the green space green and everyone should get involved because she says “big or small you can make a difference.”

As well, 7th grader Ellie Thomson says she wanted to help make a change.

She says “It’s a good feeling to have when you can look back and say I helped clean that up.”

Organizer Jessica Bradford says the students help clean up the area twice a year and in the ten years they have been doing the cleanup there has been a noticeable decrease in the garbage around the area every year.
