Ann Arbor, Mt 41109-1327 wwwmichigandailycom KARL STAMPFL DAVID GOH Editor nChief BousnssManager stamjl@mihigandiyoS, gohpoostogundoityecoo CONTACT INFORMATION Newsroom Officebhor:Sun.-Thurs. 11 aom. -2 a After the football teamas upset lasa Saturday, mare than 100,000 fans walked away fram Michigan Stadium with their hopes for a national championship completely destroyed. Many of them managed to leave somethinghbehind - trash. So who's stuck cleaning up the mess in and around the nation's largest football stadium after each game? High school students and their parents. Between 150 and 250 high schoolers and parents clean up after the maize and blue-clad fans after each goome, said Chris Ehmsan, the facilities supervisor at Michi- gan Stadium. The University has contracted with Ann Arbor's Father Gabriel Richard High School for mare than 20 years. Students from the school make their way to the Big House every Sunday after a home game at 7 a.m. to pick up crash, Ehman said. As part of the deal, the Univer- sity pays the high school about $30,000 a year, which the school uses to fund its athletic pro- gramns. The high school requires each of its student-athletes to sweep dawn the stairwells of each of the stadi- um's 44 sections, Ehman said. The local Hoy Scouts also help in the process, cleaning up whatever garbage tailgaters leave behind in the parking lots. Hut Ehman says their job is a bit "Helieve it or not, the tailgaters actually do a pretty good job of cleaning up after themselves," he said. Members of Ehman's mainte- nance staff and employees from the Athletic Department also pitch in, picking up the litter football spec- tators leave. Everyone's workload becomes heavier after the more important games on the schedule. According to 2006 statistics provided by Waste Management Services, fans littered most during the Michigan State and Wisconsin games. With more than 11,000 fans at each contest, those two games were the most attended last sea- The statistics show that fans left an average of just over 17 tons of recyclable waste at each game. Altogether, the tidying process takes about five hours. It usually lasts until about noon. "That's why it's nice to have so many bodies," Ehman said. "We actually get the cleaning done in a timely manner." - Chris Herring a.m. News Tips torrections letters to the Editor Photography Deportment Arts Settion Editorial Page Sports Section Display Sales Classified Sales Online Sales Fiance EDITORIAL STAFF Jeffrey BloomermangingEdi newspomihigndaily.com ceoetions@michigandailyecom tothedaily@omichigandoity.om photo@oiehigoodaity.coo 734- 764-0563 artspg@nmihiand 9600o opinio@micigadaily.com sports@michigandaily.com dislloy@okchigaodaity.coo classified@michigandaily.com onlfieood@michigandaily.com finaneoe@,iicigadaily.ran 0 litor boorm iciaodaiy.coo On as many as eitht Saturdays esery tall, more than 100,000 people fill Michigan Stadiam.
