Vail Valley Annual Highway Clean-up Day – A Fun and Productive Way to Spend the Morning
Posted by Terry Nolan in Health & Recreation on May 2, 2012
Kim and I participated in the Vail Valley Annual Highway Clean-up day last Saturday. What a great way to spend the morning. We joined the Prudential crew at mile market 156 just west of the Wolcott exit.
It is a little intimidating picking up trash with 18 wheelers wizzing by at 75 MPH. Most drivers are very courteous and slow down in respect for the workers.
It was also a beautiful day. You really never know what you are going to find. Very few treasures but lots of bottles, cans, auto parts, and some unmentionables.
There is a party afterward where everyone shows off their most interesting finds. We came in second this year with our discovery you can see in the photo below.
It was a fun day spent with some great folks.
