I just got word today that participation in the Friends of the Mahoning River group has declined to the point that existing members are burning out. :'(
Help them if you can.
As long as they have a hidden agenda of anti energy, run away, let them die.
Soon you will see a real river project in the works right now, by a portfolio incubator company.
they are not dying out. this group is still strong and they're planning for next year Riverfest and clean ups throughout the year.
