March 5th Adopt A Waterway Lake Cleanup

A big thanks to Buford Goff, Maurice Duperre, Thom Bristol and son, Gerald and Margaret Crawley, and Pam Greenlaw of the Gills Creek Watershed Association for coming out Saturday morning to help us pick up litter in the lake and along Percival Road. We found lots of trash, including bottles, hubcaps, plastic, fast food containers, etc.

See you on May 4th at our annual meeting!

Thanks, Amy O.

We are located within the Gills Creek Watershed....Gills Creek flows through the northeastern section of the City of Columbia and drains into the Congaree River. Gills Creek originates near Sesquicentennial State Park and accepts the drainage of Bynum Creek (Rose Creek), Rowell Creek, and Mack Creek before flowing through Rockyford Lake and Forest Lake. ) Gills Creek and its associated wetlands drain into the Congaree River. Several oxbow lakes, including Alligator Lake, drain into Gills Creek near the river. There are a total of 89.5 stream miles and 943.3 acres of lake waters in this watershed.
