ADOPT-A-ROAD


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
  •  Trash bags
  •  Gloves
  • Litter pickers
  •  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.
