Support Needed for Helen City Council Meeting

TU Member support needed next Tuesday, Nov 17, at the Helen City Council Meeting at 3pm.  There will be discussion on the cleanup of the Chattahoochee River that the City of Helen seems to not favor. Trash from the city and Tubers often accumulate down stream with no concern from the city for cleanup.  Please attend if you can to help support those trying to get the City to take action. Meeting is at City Hall up on the hill in Helen.

Helen officials hear about litter trap for Chattahoochee River
