I would like to get a head count for tomorrow morning's Adopt A Highway cleanup for our section of Rollins Rd. Meet up was determined at April Meeting that it would be 5/21 at 9am at the Grant Woods parking lot. It normally only has taken us 1 hour to walk the section. Please comment if you are coming . Thanks :)
