Earth Day is April 22nd! Arise, Litter-Gitters!

The Adopt YOUR Block - Be a Litter-Gitter volunteer citizen's group was formed by James "Jay" Bowen" and me in April 2006. We have been recruiting community volunteers and giving out our "litter sticks" since then. We now number over 1600 "litter-gitters." Each volunteer has pledged to keep just the block on which they live free of all street litter, including cigarette butts.

To celebrate our third anniversary, we are asking all of our volunteers to make sure that the block on which they reside is especially nice and clean on Earth Day - April 22nd. Let's show all of Huntington that we care about our neighborhoods and our beloved city.

Remember, all we ask of you is to keep your very own block clean and "green"! Thanks for all you do!
