Sunday, September 23th, 2012 marks the 18th Annual Lake Travis Underwater and Shoreline Cleanup,
a community-wide event that rids Lake Travis of tons of debris and
waste each year. Local dive volunteers, shoreline volunteers, and event
volunteers gather for the largest scuba diving and shoreline cleanup in
Texas. Volunteers collect an average of 5 tons of trash from different
dive sites around Lake Travis while also helping to raise public
awareness of the importance of Lake Travis and the Highland Lakes.
After the cleanup, volunteers are invited to enjoy food and fun at
the thank-you party at Carlos n Charlie’s, complete with door prizes
from our generous sponsors.
