Brian Falin, the Appalachia coordinator for the town’s Great American Cleanup anti-litter campaign, poses Saturday with another volunteer. More than 150 volunteers took to the roads, streams and woods to clean up litter in Appalachia, Big Stone Gap, Coeburn, Norton, Pound, St. Paul and Wise. Approximately 300 bags of litter were filled. ‘We're really pleased with the number of people that came out,’ said Wise County Litter Prevention Coordinator Greg Cross. SUBMITTED PHOTO
