LEE COUNTY, GA (WALB) - A washing machine, a bike, tires, a dryer drum, and sheet metal. It sounds like stuff you would find at a yard sale, except these items were found in nearby creeks.

You're looking of pictures of what volunteers pulled out of the Kinchafoonee and Muckalee creeks and part of the Flint River.

More than 100 folks came out for Saturday's clean up. The Lee County Rivers Alive organizes the annual event.  In the past, the group has pulled an engine block and a Dr. Pepper machine out of Lee County's creeks.
