Keep
Carroll Beautiful's Adopt-A-Road program is modeled after the
Department of Transportation's Adopt-A-Highway program. The Adopt-A-Road
program consists of individuals, groups and businesses who volunteer
at least 4 times a year to clean litter from the roadways. This
is a volunteer based program; therefore, there are no charges
to the participants.
If you were interested in adopting a mile you would need to:
Choose
a mile to adopt. Sometimes people have a mile in mind that they
wish to adopt while others choose from a list provided by Keep Carroll
Beautiful.
- Recruit
participants 12 years or older.
- Read
and sign the attached agreement.
- Meet
for a brief safety training with Keep Carroll Beautiful before
your cleanup.
- Utilize
parental consent forms and release of liability forms provided
by Keep Carroll Beautiful.
- Participate
in clean-ups at least 4 times per year.
- Monitor
your mile between clean-ups.
- Report
clean up results to Keep Carroll Beautiful.
In return, Keep
Carroll Beautiful provides volunteers:
- A
sign with the individual's or group's name at the designated
mile Safety training for the group leader.
- Scheduling
of quarterly clean-up events
- Annual
recognition for the volunteer group
- High
visibility safety vests
- Pick
up of filled trash bags on roadway
Please review
the Adopt-A-Road agreement.
If the adoption process does not seem right for you or your group;
then, consider volunteering as you are able and help other Adopt-A-Road
groups or individuals. The next scheduled litter pick-up will be
on ________________________________.
We hope that you will consider volunteering with us and look forward
to hearing from you! If you have any questions, please call Jacqueline
Dost at 678-890-2361.
