Thank you to the volunteers who came down our street on April 6 and picked up the litter.
I live on a street where some people clean out their cars and throw the trash in the street or yards, or their garbage is overflowed and the rest gets blown in neighbors' yards. I pick up as much as I can. Parents need to teach their children not to litter, but I have seen adults litter, too.
Again, hats off to the volunteers. Keep America beautiful.
