Club acknowledges public-spirited residents

What do you do for a couple of Patonga residents who have spent the last nine years removing garbage from the roadside along Patonga Rd?

Members of the St Huberts Island Triathlon Club have seen Ms Bev Hurley and Mr Bob Walker every Tuesday and Thursday morning walking along the road, tongs in one hand a re-useable bag in the other picking up rubbish that some people think they have the right to throw out the car windows.

Could you imagine how bad the roadside would be if this couple had done nothing?

This is all coming to an end though.

Bev and Bob are leaving Patonga to take up residence in Perth.

The triathlon club has acknowledged their contribution to the environment by presenting them with a card of appreciation signed by all the members.
