Summer on the Five Mile Creek Greenway
This summer Cawaco RC&D Council will sponsor three interns to work on Five Mile Creek - Patrick Welch and Lacey Genard from Birmingham-Southern College and Kellie Burns from Samford University. They will be working all over the watershed on various projects including:
Black Creek water quality
Newfound Creek water quality
Bicycle Rodeo in Tarrant
Lake Profiles in Center Point Reed-Harvey Park
Writing of the “Field Guide to Coke Ovens”
HELP SAVE A HISTORIC HOUSE
The Five Mile Creek Local History Committee and Cawaco RC&D Council are working to relocate and preserve a classic miner’s house currently located in Cardiff. The owner must move the house for insurance reasons. The committee would like to relocate the house to the Brookside Municipal complex to be used as a museum and meeting place. We need your donations to pay for moving and renovating.
Send donations to Brookside Town Hall or Cawaco RC&D Council. Mark your checks “Cardiff House Restoration.”
