The joint Corps/parish cleanup at Bonnie Carrie was the best in four years: 88 volunteers, 175 cypress trees planted, about a thousand pounds of trash off 6.5 miles of shoreline. Next year's event is targeted for the fourth Saturday of September, possibly with an added West Bank event near Davis Pond.
