MAUMEE, Ohio (AP) - Volunteers are being sought to help clean up a park near Toledo that was littered with debris after chunks of ice along a river pushed up over its banks.
Officials with the Wood County Park District were hoping for a big turnout Saturday.
Buttonwood Park just south of Toledo is still a mess two weeks after the ice jams along the Maumee (maw-MEE’) River. The ice destroyed soccer goals at the park and left behind sinkholes in a road leading to the park.
The ice jams also caused extensive damage to a cemetery along the river. The ice knocked over headstones, including some dating to the mid-1800s.
