Photos of Spring 2014 Trash-Off 4/14 K.Agee

Some of our more ambitious West Garland Neighborhood Association members met on Saturday morning 3/29/14 for this spring’s Trash-Off event. This is part of Garland’s version of the statewide “Don’t Mess With Texas” trash collection event. The target site for our neighborhood was around the creek behind Walgreen’s (Jupiter @ Buckingham). President Rocha supplied some tools and Robert Vera used his pickup to haul the bags of trash to the Grainger Rec Center where our contribution was added to all the other group’s efforts.

As in the past, Garland’s Trash-Off event was sponsored by a local non-profit group called Keep Garland Beautiful (one of our members, Fran Brown is on the board). They typically sponsor two of the events per year. See their website www.KeepGarlandBeautiful.org for details of their overall program.

As a reminder, its never too early to start thinking about where next year’s cleanup site should be!
