Together, we can make this swimmable every day.

It was an important step, like i said, when I was a kid, I’d never imagine we’d be at a point where we can do this. Its a good day, and its a perfect day to do it!

If we continue doing what we have to at city government and clean up our water system, but also the litter, the trash, if everyone is more responsible. This is our responsibility collectively, and so everyone who wants the water to be cleaner make sure their holding their neighbors accountable, make sure their thinking about the wastes and resources, we can do this together!
