Gleaning Facebook: Joe Cook





Joe Cook, our former Riverkeeper and Executive Director of the Coosa River Basin Initiative, is now using his time exclusively for communication and advocacy for our rivers. To honor the work he has so eloquently led for years to protect our unique watershed, a bronze plaque has been placed in the sidewalk in front of the CRBI office. This morning we gathered there to surprise Joe, and "unveil" his plaque. Joe is very deserving of this honor. Few, if any, have done more for the environment of Northwest Georgia in the last few decades. Thanks, Joe Cook!

While we were celebrating Joe, the winner of the Kayak raffle came by to claim her gorgeous sit-on-top craft. And wow! Was she excited!

The kayak winner embraces the kayak donor, James Lossick of Cedar Creek RV & Outdoor Center. Thank you James for all you do for our rivers!
