ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY UPDATE

By Ken Seydel

Saturday October 6th was our bimonthly cleaning of the freeway adjacent to Edgewood. Nine of our regular volunteers were joined by new trash warrior Brian Cole. Thank you Brian Cole, Sarah Divine, Carolyn Dorsch, Katherine Greene, Billy James, Bill and Kathy Korbholz, Margaret Marshall, Susan Russell, and Ken Seydel.

The freeway was unusually dirty this time and we set a record of 32 bags. Most of the trash was small, so we also set a record for time spent. Usually we are finished by 11:00 or 11:30. This time we worked until 12:30.

As always we found money (25 cents!) and at least one hubcap (VW). Also of interest was a Leatherman Utility Tool, a very large snake skin, bungie cord, combination wrench, playing cards (2 aces, 1 queen, 1 seven and 2 fives – not a very good hand), and one piece of a jigsaw puzzle (someone will be very frustrated).

If you have an interest in joining our great group please see Upcoming Events.
