Sam Snobelen (left) and Paul MacDonald were busy cleaning the Goderich Rotary Cove beach on Wednesday. The two Ripley men bought the new beach cleaner this year and are contracted to clean the beaches in Goderich, Kincardine, Huron-Kinloss and Saugeen Shores. So far, Snobelen said they are “very happy with the machine.” He expects the spring clean-up to take a few days because it is more intensive. They will also return throughout the summer season to clean the beaches on a regular basis, but those visits should take only two to three hours. Goderich public works manager Chip Wilson said, “It’s doing an amazing job [on the beach]. We’re extremely happy with how it’s going.” The machine is said to be more environmentally friendly and will leave less of a ‘footprint’ on the natural surroundings, Wilson said.
