Are you tired of seeing litter on the streets, in parks, and on our roadways of Allen County? If so, it's time to stand up and take action! Sign up to be a part of the Adopt A Roadway program and help restore pride in our community.
Volunteers are needed to help keep litter from reaching our streams and wreaking havoc on our waterways and drinking water. Those who want to lend a hand are asked to clean up their adopted area two times a year. Trash bags, gloves, and safety vests are supplied.
Regular participants in the program can have a sign placed at their adopted area with their name on it. These signs credit those who work to keep the area clean and remind others not to litter. The program is open to individuals, families, business and groups who want to add their special area to the growing list of adopted roadways.
For more information, stop by the AllenSWCD office located at 1870 Slabtown Road Lima, Ohio 45801 or contact Lydia Archambo at 419- 222-0846 X 1004.
You can also receive further information through email by writing to [email protected] and making the request. The Allen Soil and Water Conservation District and the City of Lima work as partners to maintain this program.
