Eighteen teams of volunteers picked up trash along 14 miles of roadway in the Pike Road community during April, filling up at least 114 bags of litter.
A gas cap to an older-model car, and vintage candy bar wrappers and soda bottles were just some of the interesting items found along the roadside, said Turner Waddell, Pike Road communications specialist.
“We have so many blessings in the Town of Pike Road, and one of them is the beautiful landscape of our community. Each year, the Spring Cleanup provides an opportunity for our community to work together to be good stewards of our natural surroundings,” Mayor Gordon Stone said. “We are so appreciative of the community engagement illustrated by the record-setting participation in our 2021 Cleanup effort.”
