The 30th Annual Help the Hooch citywide cleanup demonstrated the community's commitment to our environment. For 30 years, the Muscogee- Columbus Rotary Club has been a dedicated partner, each year cleaning up Rotary Park on the Chattahoochee River. Our annual "craziest trash" contest highlighted the variety of debris we encounter, with finds like homemade weapons, light fixtures, and chicken legs. The overall impact of Help the Hooch was significant, with over 105 tons of trash removed from our city.
