Ditch Pickers

Stepping down into a ditch to remove trash from sunken boulevards is the trait of champions of the Adopt-a-Block volunteer crew. Retrieving rubbish tossed carelessly from the deep pockets of a trench sometimes takes a bit of fancy footwork and weird body contortions to reach out for the garbage and toss it into a bag.

A dedicate couple has taken up ditch picking along their property line on the corner of Peterson Road and Evergreen Road. There are no sidewalks on their trek but there is a great deal of discarded junk. Armed with garbage tongs, work gloves and trash bags, the troopers brighten up the area for your hiking, walking and driving enjoyment.

When you come upon the hard-working Adopt-a-Block volunteers show them your gratitude.
