Save the date: Saturday Oct. 13 is Ocmulgee Alive!

The Macon Water Authority (MWA) and a number of local sponsors and organizers will be hosting the eighth annual Ocmulgee Alive! on Saturday Oct. 13, 2012, from 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. The event is held in conjunction with the statewide Rivers Alive campaign, a Georgia EPD Adopt-A-Stream program designed to create awareness of and involvement in the preservation of Georgia’s waterways. Last year, Macon’s annual river cleanup featured 345 volunteers, and organizers hope to break that record this year.
