Saturday Is Clean-Up Day In Jackson
Jackson County residents are asked to help clean up the county this Saturday.
Keep Jackson County Beautiful will try to get the litter picked up along each of its highways “adopted” under its Adopt-A-Road program.
Not only does Susan Trepagnier, executive director of Keep Jackson County Beautiful, expect to get some 30-plus miles of “adopted” roads cleaned, but she’s also hoping to get other sites de-littered.
A number of organizations have adopted roads, but anyone who wants to remove litter from a road, or anywhere else, is encouraged to get involved.
“There is still time for suggestions from anyone who knows of a road that needs to be cleaned,” she said. “If we could get everybody out on the roads and clean them up, it would be the perfect thing to do.”
“We’ve got bags. We’ve got gloves. If you need anything, give me a call,” she said. “Businesses need to give me a call. It’s a great time for them to get together on one Saturday and clean up around their businesses.”
For information or to volunteer, call Trepagnier at 706-708-7198.
