100 volunteers give spring cleanup to Spokane River

CONSERVATION -- More that 100 volunteers turned out for the annual Spokane Riverkeeper Spring River Clean on April 12, with a big boost from students at Gonzaga University.  

"It was our biggest and best clean up by far, we had a record number of partners on board to make it so, and above all we left a part of the Spokane River MUCH cleaner than we found it," said Riverkeeper Bart Mihailovich.
