South River clean-up planned

The South River Watershed Alliance, working with several other environmental groups, will host a tire roundup and clean-up on the South River on May 30 in south DeKalb County.

Volunteers are needed to help remove trash and debris from the river at the Panola Shoals/Highway 155 area and end at Klondike Road.

Crews will work from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and must register in advance.
