Join us on Saturday, May 25, 2024!

What a great volunteer opportunity for you and your family!  Each spring, the TLA cleans both sides of the highway from the Pine Cone in Marcell to mile marker 31 by the Timberwolf Inn.  This requires a small crew of 14 – 16, so it shouldn't take very long.  Many hands make for quick work and more fun!

Thank you to our 2023 cleanup volunteers! A hot sun, ticks, gnats, and mosquitoes could not deter this hardy group. We thank (in alphabetical order) Dave Barsness, Mike Cassidy, Eric & Gina Flaten, John & Linda Hanson, Jim Jamieson, Jon Lorton, Paul Myers, Gary Ortwig, and Jake & Mary Yockers.

Help us keep Scenic Hwy 38 beautiful and clean! Our adopted stretch of road begins at the Pine Cone in Marcell and continues north 2.5 miles.

General Information

• Each person will receive a highly fashionable bright yellow reflective safety vest and a matching trash bag.

• Please bring your own gloves, bottled water, sunscreen, bug/tick repellent, and pick-up stick or hand gripper.

• We will only pick up cans, bottles, paper, and plastic (no deer carcasses, fallen trees, or rusty truck bodies).

• The clean-up should be fun and, if we get around 12 pickers or so, it shouldn't take very long.

• We will be picking up trash from mile marker 31 south to the Pine Cone (on both sides of the highway). We will divide up into three groups:
  Group #1 - Mile marker 31 to Matt Zimmer Road
  Group #2 - Matt Zimmer Road to Evergreen Point Road
  Group #3 - Evergreen Point Road to the Pine Cone

• For safety reasons and due to the narrowness of highway shoulders, we request that children under the age of 12 not participate.
