VMS Opportunity: Adopt-a-Highway (AAH) Clean-Up Event at Columbus Loop On Colorado River Boat Launch

Our next Adopt-a-Highway (AAH) cleanup in Columbus at the North Bridge on US Bus 71 will be Wednesday, January 28th from 9:30-11:30am. For anyone up for it, we can meet up afterwards for lunch at Frontier Rodeo in Columbus.

Meet in the paved parking lot below the bridge. Navigate in your map to “Columbus Loop on the Colorado River Boat Launch”. Note that the meet-up location is on the Colorado River under a bridge…some maps have another Columbus Loop that is a short road off State Hwy 71 that can confuse you.

Tips:

• Wear long pants and sturdy closed toe shoes (boots are ideal) for your safety.
• Bring: Gloves, grabber if you have it (a few are available to loan), sun protection, and water.
• You may also find it helpful to bring a bucket to use to collect trash as it is easier for some than keeping a plastic bag open.
• Also, it is helpful to bring a bucket or smaller bag to separate aluminum cans that are recycled by the project leader.

Trash bags, orange vests, rubber gloves, and a few grabbers are provided.
