Press release
Every spring, the Rotary Club branches in the U.S. and Canada that serve the areas surrounding the Great Lakes, from Superior to Ontario, try to clean up the watershed. Members conduct a group cleanup of a portion of the Seaway Trail that has ditches draining directly into the Niagara River that would, as soon as the underbrush and poison ivy regrows, become inaccessible. They also plawk (a Scandinavian term for picking up trash while walking) all along the Niagara River and Lake Ontario shores year-round.

So far this year, the 88-year-old, proudly binational Rotary Club of Lewiston and Niagara-on-the-Lake has collected numerous bags of returnable bottles (the deposits of which were used to support wildlife rescue), as well as trash of all description.
Lewiston/NOTL Rotary doesn't mind doing the dirty work that helps make the communities on both sides of the Niagara River a great place to live.
