Cee Kay Supply Sponsors Mission: Clean Stream and General Motors Earth Day

ST. LOUIS - April 16, 2013 - PRLog -- St. Louis, Mo. - Cee Kay Supply recently sponsored the 11th annual Mission: Clean Stream and Stream Trash Art™ program, which was in conjunction with General Motors Earth Day Festival.  The event took place on April 6th, 2013, at the General Motors plant in Wentzville, MO.  

As many as 1,300 volunteers from local communities participate in the stream cleanup each year. Since the program started in 1996, over 141,428 volunteer hours have been dedicated to the Mission: Clean Stream event. Throughout the duration of the clean stream program, approximately 1088 tons of trash has been collected out of streams and rivers.

This has been the fifth year in a row Cee Kay Supply has participated in the event. Each year, Cee Kay’s Regional Vice President of Sales, Heath Wells, and Western Regional Manager, Dave Teson, create a metal art sculpture from pieces of metal found during the cleanup.  This year, Wells and Teson created a snail, made from an old piece of cast iron, which was also converted into a flower pot. The snail took about 8 hours to complete.

Not only were Wells and Teson welding away during the festival, but Cee Kay’s CEO and Owner, Tom Dunn, was also present at the event, making chocolate ice cream with liquid nitrogen for festival goers.
