* This team continued after the contest and pulled three more bags of garlic mustard, totaling an additional 96 pounds and bringing our weekend total to 4050.5 pounds!

In addition to the garlic mustard pulled, well over 30 bags of trash were picked up!

Garlic Mustard was removed primarily from the VFW park. Trash was removed from the VFW, August Derleth parks and the Canoe Launch at the end of Lueders Road.
