8th Annual Litter Pick-Up and Papermaking


Student Reporter: Samantha Lamers


With global warming and other environmental issues on the rise, many do not understand the danger that that occurs with these problems. Fortunately, this year was the 8th annual Litter Pick-Up and Paper Making which is held by the Art Club of Cedar Grove – Belgium HS.


Mr. Urness and many students met on Saturday, April 18, 2009 at 10:00am on S. Commerce St. in Cedar Grove to begin their activities for the day. They walked along State Road 32 heading eastward towards Interstate 43 continually clearing out the area of its litter.


After the students were done with the litter-picking up portion of the day, they went back to the school for lunch followed by a group activity of paper-making. With the paper-making, they use some of the debris that they found earlier that morning and intertwine into their theme. This year, their theme for their paper-making art project is outer space.
