On a recent Saturday morning, members of the Rotary Club of Tryon were out early picking up trash along Highway 176, both north and south of Tryon. The project is part of the club’s commitment to environmental protection and beautification and is led by Rotarian John Walters. The club conducts the clean up three times each year and following the work Walters treats the volunteers to doughnuts, coffee and juice. Rotarians pictured are Ron Wingo, Dave Cornelius, Charles McKeller, John Walters, Art Brown, John Gargiulo, Jim Mellberg, and Hugh Hursey. (photo submitted by Bill Hillhouse)
