About 100 yellow-vested Church of God members showed up on the banks of the Hackensack River on August 1, 2010 with passion and fervor to serve the community. Some volunteers used pickup sticks to uncover common objects, like glass and plastic bottles, while some relied on cumulative strength to haul out extra-large tires and even pieces of rusted household appliances embedded in the overgrown brush. Throwing the refuse in large black plastic bags, teams in canoes paddled up and down gathering all that the teams accumulated.
