Today a group of 20 club members, friends and family completed our fall cleanup on Stonebridge and Norell, north of Stillwater. We've kept this 2.5 mile stretch of road clean for 30 years now, since 1981. Our adopted highway includes Stonebridge Trail (along the golf course), then past Stillwater Township hall and north on Norell Avenue North to near Myeron. We had great weather and the project turned into a fun social event - you have to try it to believe trash pickup is a lot of fun. Let us know if you'd like to join us on future roadside cleanups, or other projects like this. Just click on "contact us" and we'll get in touch. (More pictures here)

Today a group of 15 club members, friends and family completed our spring cleanup on Stonebridge and Norell, north of Stillwater. We've kept this 2.5 mile stretch of road clean for 30 years now, since 1981. Our adopted highway includes Stonebridge Trail (along the golf course), then past Stillwater Township hall and north on Norell Avenue North to near Myeron. Today was our second try as we were rained out last weekend - much nicer weather today. It's amazing how this group turns a project like this into a fun social event - you have to try it to believe trash pickup is a lot of fun. Let us know if you'd like to join us on future roadside cleanups, or other projects like this. Just click on "contact us" and we'll get in touch.
Twelve Rotarians enjoyed coffee, treats and a nice walk with friends this past Saturday morning. Oh, we also picked up trash along Norell (Owen St.) north of Stillwater. Peggy and I even found an unopened can of beer and some "organic" cigarettes! Check out the pictures (here). The last photo is "after" enjoying more coffee and "recovery" treats.
