TGO & HCP PR - Adopt a roadway
Thanks to this thread Good PR For Carry Permit Holders
I started thinking about this. Well I am looking into this. Beautification Office - Tennessee Department of Transportation - Environmental Division We are never going to agree on an exact roadway. So... I propose that we have city/regional roads and adopt a whole bunch of them. Which means that we will need a coordinator for each road. To schedule the date and time for clean up. Quote:
I thought maybe a monthly or bi-weekly cleanup would be better than just one per quarter. Might show people that we are not just gun totin rednecks. That we do actually care about our communities. UPDATE: Here are a list of people who so far are in. If I missed you let me know. I got these from posts that said "I'm in" If the post didnt specify I didnt add you cause I wasnt sure. 56FordGuy Sumner County adamween Cookeville,TN Angus Hendersonville, Tn.

That's not a bad idea there, Gun Geek.

We do this as a church group and I have a few suggestions.
The first time you go out is going to be the worst one. You will fill up 40 bags of trash. Be ready. Pick a central location to dump all the bags when you're done. Drop people off in all 4 corners of the road and meet in the middle where you're going to leave the bags. For example, we have a 2 mile stretch of road. We meet at our middle location, check our list of people that we have the signed releases for (if anyone new shows up get them to fill out the form, just keep on file). Put on the orange vests and head out. Divide into 4 groups and drop off on each side of the road on each end. Walk and pick up trash .. . bring gloves and don't worry about crazy stuff (road kill . big crap . ) You might have a a guy in a truck tailing along on the first day because the bags will fill up fast. Dump all the bags in one spot and call the number and tell them where it is. They will pick them up. After that it's just maintenance. You'll find that even going only twice a year after that will be enough. We just did our road and only filled 10 bags. Donuts are a must. Oh, and you need to do it once before you'll get your sign put up. |

Maybe we can convince David to make us a new forum just for this? for organizing these cleanups.
