WGME 13 - News - Occupy Portland cleans up, but stays put

Occupy Portland says it's giving back to the city as a judge decides whether to allow the demonstrators to continue camping at a public park.

The Occupiers spent Saturday cleaning up Lincoln Park, where they have been camped out since October. One demonstrator says the camp has gone from 70 tents at its peak to about 30 now, and the people who left have left things behind.

Trucks came into the park Saturday to haul things away like pillows and mattresses.

Demonstrators say they want to make the park more welcoming and inviting to the public.
