Hello!I was contacted by the Keep Whitehouse Beautiful (KWB)group today about the upcoming Trash Off Day, Saturday, April 4th. In the past, we have participated by getting a crew of Country Place residents together to pick up the trash along Hwy 346. Our normal area covers from the bridge between CP and Oakbrook east to CR 15. About 1 or 2 miles. They provide us the bags and occasionally there are t-shirts. We gather the trash and put it in a pile at the entrances to CP. We need to count the number of bags and let the reps know where they can pick it up. They usually come within a few days to get it.
Here’s where I need help! I need an organizer. Someone who can make the contacts to get volunteers, go get the bags and/or t-shirts, count the bags and provide KWB with our report. It would also be nice if we had some refreshments at the “meeting location. ” You know, donuts, water bottles, juice. CP can refund your expenses. I can certainly help with the volunteer recruitment by sending out a mass email to all residents asking for help. It may take some additional phone calls and a reminder nearer the date.
Our daughter, Kate, will be running in a track meet that day so I am not available to help. If you would be interested in taking this on, or helping (there are some on the list that may be able to incorporate this into a Home School project for the older kids), call me or reply to this email. I’ll be happy to answer any questions!
Mohr Later!
