Can We Actually Enjoy RiverFest?


As residents walk on recently contaminated grounds through the local lift station dumping raw sewage everywhere, can everyone trust their children won't be harmed by contaminated grounds?

Since HAZMAT was not even called, let alone brought in, the City did a questionable job cleaning up this entire area between the old draw bridge all the way up to the lift station.

Then there's the contaminated river as well. It's no wonder Iyeska and I didn't see Warning Signs in this particular area where the raw sewage actually ran into the river and last week a Diver was in the water working on a tug boat until they learned from us that the water was in fact contaminated.

I'm sorry Folks but to me this is one of the phoniest celebrations I have ever seen in my entire life! Then to shove it in everyone's face and hold it right where the illegal spill actually happened and no one is concerned, this is a joke!

I hear the Salisbury Zoo will also be there acting like they too respect the river, yet it wasn't that many months ago the MDE came in there and slammed them by capping illegal pipes draining raw sewage and chemicals directly into the river. Oh, I know some of you are saying, let it be Joe, lay off the Zoo. NOPE! Jim Rapp and Ron Alessi lied to the community by stating they had nothing to do with those pipes illegally dumping into the river and that the pipes were put in there some 30 years ago. WRONG! LIARS! It was only 10 years ago or so when they built those exhibits and pools we're talking about and they're liars! Own up to breaking the law and we'll go away. Until then, you're liars, cheaters and con men.

Just remember parents, there are no "5 Second Rules" at this event! In this case it will be against the law to drop something on the ground and allow your children to pick it up, let alone eat it! I wonder if the Health Department went over there and tested the grounds? Besides that, enjoy the event. LOL

Fortunately, I only have to work two hours (12-2) at the WCRC booth in the grassy area by the river. But I'll spend time scoping out the car show as well.

Last year, I took a cruise down the river to check it out, this year I think I'll refrain!

Anonymous Poster, the city gov't of the 'bury has been serving up "sheeit" for years. Are you suggesting that the same city gov't can charge for it? This could be a real cash cow for the 'bury! Kudos to you,dude!
