We filed our yearly tax forms as a non-profit today. I would rather pick up a dozen dirty diapers than do the paperwork, but I do it because I love this group.

A little accounting today during the off-season. We received $100 and $50 in donations from our friend Hans and a donor who works at Subaru of America, Inc. Thanks for that. We will be sure to waste it on pizza, gasoline, and beverages.

We also paid the balance on the Trash Fishing marina fees. It's our biggest bill of the year $1850. It hurts to see that money go out the door, but the marina makes the river cleanups possible, so it is worth it.

I apologize that someone hacked our page and changed the name. We did not change from a trash cleanup group to an Orthotic Shoe company. We will change back to Enemies of Debris but apparently this requires 60 days, so on January 18th the last bit or normalcy will resume.

Thanks for your patience.
Tom.

Here is a financial update for us. I'm posting this because our annual fundraiser is this evening. So this will likely be our low-point financially for the year. It's not very low though. We were quite frugal this year and have some funds remaining. In our bank account we have $3,358.62 and in our petty cash cardboard box we have $373. for a total of: $3731.62. That's just about an entire year's operating budget for our humble little organization. We are feeling good about it. It's nice to be free from worry.

I’m asking you to very slightly change your ways. Here is why you should stop buying bottled water and refuse to use and buy styrofoam products.

Today we went urban snorkeling.

We were looking to remove things that might cause an injury if you went skinny dipping at this abandoned island.

The tire we pulled weighed 5,800 pounds! It is now at the tire recyclers. They charged us $200 to recycle it properly, but it all seems worth it. Great job team! Enemies of Debris Trash Fishing
