NCAJ Food Drive

This project is sponsored by the New Lawyers Division of the NCAJ, and is a statewide program done on an annual basis.

Raleigh’s Adopt-A-Stream Program

Mr. Jernigan recently participated in a stream clean-up under the sponsorship of St. Michael’s Episcopal Church. He helped clean a branch of the Beaverdam Creek which runs from Wade Avenue to Glenwood Avenue. Sources of pollution are varied and hard to detect simply through the monitoring of water quality,so the City has declared that the best way to seek out the pollution sources is to physically walk the streams.
