Spoil Island Cleanup 2022
St. Joseph Sound
Flotilla 11-10 Annual Spoil Island Cleanup
|
( this is the Island we worked on today)
There are 15 Spoil Islands on St.Joseph's Sound. They were created when the ICW (Intracoastal Waterway was created)
Many people picnic on the islands & some even camp overnight. As a rule the people take care to maintain but some do not
hence the need to have cleanups. There is one island, Bird Island, that is a bird sanctuary no people permitted. It is amazing
the numerous species of birds that use this island..
We had 3 vessels transporting the members and visitors...
