The phone number to call to adopt-a-stream is 864-1996.

Bags are provided, and the city will erect a sign at no charge to you. Imagine a clean Jordan Creek with a sign that advertises "Missouri Liberty Coalition", "Campaign for Liberty", or whatever. The Greene County Libertarians do this, and for 3 or 4 clean-ups a year your organization will get credit in the eyes of the public for doing something good for the community, and your stream gets cleaned up! --Doug ----- Original Message ----- From: larmelt...@aol.com To: missourilibertycoalition@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, January 02, 2009 9:33 AM Subject: Re: quite interesting Good idea. I will get 'er done. I can put pictures in an email with Kodak easy share and it seems to work pertty good. I'll go get some and send'em to Ya. I should send them to that new crime lab first.

So, I think if a community is more aware of where there are issues like that, there are people that will start cleaning up. I am sure there are plenty of people that like clean water, air and land. Maybe you can take some pictures of it, write a blog and those of us with blogs can focus on your issue so that we can get some help to clean up your view. I would like to see how bad it is, and what you are seeing from your eyes. You could even create a slide show on photobucket.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------- New year...new news.
