ENVIRONMENT: Community members clean-up Albion

The Journal-Register

ALBION Many gathered Saturday to clean-up the canal in Albion. The Albion Main Street Alliance and the Orleans County Chamber of Commerce sponsored the event that brought several organizations together to pick up the trash and garbage around the canal and beautify the community.

“There is a lot of littering going on through the season,” said AMSA member Michael Bonafede. “We’re picking it up and getting rid of it.”

Bonafede said that the state donates water and trash bags for the event and each year more and more people are coming out and helping clean-up Albion.

Among those in the clean-up was the Lyndonville Tigers semi-pro football team. According to their foundation president Taylor McCabe, the group recently re-organized and decided to do a number of things throughout the season to give back to the county. He said that the team is made up of players from all over Orleans County and they want to raise awareness and

also make a positive difference in the community.

Tiger’s general manager Joe Suhr said that instead of just being a football team, they want to be an organization. As part of that, he said they want to give back to the community.

The Lyndonville Tigers are part of the New York Amateur Football League and their sixth season will begin soon, playing Saturday games at Roy-Hart.
