Ogeechee Technical College’s (OTC) Wildlife Club was named Organization Partner of the Year by the Ogeechee Riverkeeper.

“It’s truly an honor for the Ogeechee Riverkeeper to recognize my students in their efforts to help keep our waterways clean. Any piece of trash, no matter how small, that we can remove from the creeks and rivers of Bulloch and surrounding counties is one less piece of trash to make it into the Atlantic Ocean or affect our wildlife,” said Casey Corbett, OTC’s Fish & Wildlife Management Instructor.

“My students, as well as the Ogeechee Riverkeeper, understand the importance of protecting our environment for future generations to enjoy. I am very proud to see the OTC Wildlife Club being honored by the Ogeechee Riverkeeper staff,” said Corbett.
