May 2006 - Year 11 John Gray Recyclers visited Barkers' to collect garbage and help with the organisation of the collection of 15 cubic yds of solid waste from the dykes, and close to the Barkers' sign, in just under two hours.  More solid waste had been dumped since our clean up 10 days ago!  Mr Sydney Moore from the DEH joined us to co-ordinate the clean up.

The John Gray Recyclers would like to thank the Cayman Islands' Department of Environmental Health for organising the clean up of solid waste so quickly for us. It was a wonderful experience to watch all the garbage that was so harmful to marine/land flora and fauna being removed from this area to be placed in the George Town landfill.
