For the first event we will be going for a boat cruise up and down the Weiti River and will be getting stuck in doing a litter clean up along the riverbanks. Places on the boat are strictly limited.

DrWatson 375 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 River cleanups are great. They do one every year in Zurich - The dive clubs get together and haul all the urban crap out of the river which has been chucked in during the last year... bicycles, old tyres, shopping trolleys, pump actions... your everyday sort of urban rubbish. Lots of Divers in NZ... Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 0 Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 As I recall, they found a few automobiles when they cleaned up the Viaduct Basin for the America's Cup. But unlike New Jersey, no bodies were found in the trunks (boots?). Link to post Share on other sites
