The Cardinal and many other birds that hunt along the Town Creek in Columbia observed the Lindsey Wilson Football Team Members hard at work, clearing debris blocking the water. Town Creek flows year-round, fed by natural springs, and catches garbage in times of high water and re-distributes it when it gets into the valley. It was only one of the projects the volunteers on Coach Oliver's Team worked on Wednesday, May 1, 2019. This event is one of two dates each year where students give their time to serve on local projects to help make this a better place. The other is a September event called Malvina Farkle Day.

On the Lindsey Wilson College Football Team day of service in Columbia, one of the miscellaneous items pulled out of Town Creek included a pink small child’s scooter, complete with an attached tiny plastic purse, that some little girl has probably missed. It and many other items had gotten stuck when high waters took them as far as possible along Town Creek before flowing on. Comments | Permalink LWC Football team working on Town Creek find banner

The plastic items pulled out of the water by the LWC Football Team included this full size banner from the former nail salon in the shopping center on Jamestown hill. Things that are tossed out or left behind are caught in times of wind and high water and the little creek re-distributes them when it gets into the valley that winds to Lynn’s Service Center where it goes under Jamestown Street and heads on toward Russell Creek.
