Spring Canal Clean Up
True North, in cooperation with the Illinois Dept of Natural Resources and the Canal Corridor Association, will be coordinating the 2nd Annual “Spring Canal Clean Up” on Sunday, April 29th, 2018. True North reserved the 3-mile stretch of the I & M Canal from Downtown Morris to Cemetery Road (and beyond). After the long winter, debris and litter have descended on the trail and banks of the canal. Before the trees, plants and flowers bloom; before the hikers and bikers take to the path, we need your help to clean it up!
This is a great opportunity for you to give back to the community. Grab your family and friends and head out to the trail and be part of a great day. True North Volunteers will be meeting in Downtown Morris at the Canal Port Park at 9AM. From here, volunteers may disperse to clean up by walking or biking the trail or kayak the canal. All ages are welcome. Bring a pair of gloves, True North will provide trash bags & water.
True North was recently voted Grundy County's BEST Antique Store, Best Gift Store and Best Home Décor Store. Open 7 days a week. www.shoptruenorth.com.
