Good morning, Eau Claire.

Today, 1,500 volunteers gathered across Eau Claire to clean parks, playgrounds, and streets — part of the 17th Amazing Eau Claire Clean-Up.

City recreation supervisor Claire Ystebo said the event helps beautify local spaces and brings community members together.

On Saturday evening, a 44-year-old Eau Claire man named Jason Chodera was pulled over while speeding on Highway 85 east of Fuller Road and arrested on suspicion of his sixth OWI offense after a trooper smelled intoxicants—he is now held at Eau Claire County Jail while additional charges for operating after revocation and felony bail jumping are being considered.
