Lt. Tim Cougle leads a group of volunteers in a neighborhood cleanup challenge on Saturday as part of the second annual Lake Auburn Trash Off! event. Participants met at 9:30 a.m. Saturday morning at the Lake Auburn Community Center. The event was organized by Police Lt. Tim Cougle, Criminal Investigations Commander of the Auburn Police Department and the police officer liaison to the Lake Auburn Neighborhood Crime Watch group, which started the event. Over 15 extra large bags were filled with trash found on the side of the road all around Lake Auburn, not including recyclables which were kept separate. The bottles collected are then donated to the Lake Auburn Community Center, which helps pay for the bathroom facilities. Pat’s Pizza donated pizza for the event and hamburgers were also available for the volunteers.
