Annual Trog Sinkhole Cleanup Postponed For Weather

Cookeville’s annual Trog Sinkhole cleanup has been postponed for impending rain.

The cleanup has been moved from Saturday to March 27. Cookeville Public Works Stormwater Manager Blake Mayo said the rain could cause unsafe conditions due to high water in the sinkhole.

This cleanup was to address litter and debris that collects in the Trog Sinkhole. Mayo said that anyone participating in the cleanup should wear sturdy shoes and dress accordingly.

Clean up supplies, water, and snacks will be provided for participants. Cookeville Public Works will be partnering with the Student Environmental Action Coalition of Tennessee Tech.
