Page 10 - Tlie Perquimans Weekly, Hertford, N.C., Thursday, September 17,1998 Big Sweep comes to Perquimans If you’ve ever walked along North Carolina’s beaches, lakes, rivers, and streams and stubbed your toe - or even got ten cut - because someone carelessly tossed their trash out, you’re not alone. If you are bothered by litter left by careless people, you can help ease the pain by participating in the statewide waterway lit ter cleanup. Wildlife suffers from litter, too. Turtles can die from ingesting plastic bags. Birds can get tangled in fishing line. You can be part of the solu tion to litter by joining the First Citizens Bank Big Sweep cleanup on Saturday, Sept. 19 in Perquimans County, from 9 a.m.-l p.m. (during the Indian Summer Festival) or anytime the following week. Since 1987, when Big Sweep began, over 3 million pounds of debris along North Carolina’s waterways have been collected. In 1997 alone. Big Sweep volunteers collected over 255 tons of trash. The most common category was plastic, followed by metal, glass, paper, wood, rubber, and cloth. Unusual finds last year included bikes, lawn fur niture, a toupee, a microwave, television, a baby carriage, a houseboat, auto batteries, an orange fingernail, a pay phone, a toilet, medical waste, a traffic cone, and various dead animals - almost every thing, including a kitchen sink! To volunteer or for more information contact Marjorie Rayburn, Perquimans Big Sweep Coordinator at 426-5097 or 482-8431, daytime. Individuals, families, school groups, churches, clubs, and organizations are encouraged to participate. Gloves, Big Sweep trash bags, pens, and data sheets will be provided.
