Roadside and River Trash Cleanups; Recycle Tire Amnesty Days<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Periodically throughout the year, our chapter member volunteers will participate in scheduled trash cleanup and recycling events.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"The chapter participates in a variety of trash cleanup events and these are available for perusal on our online chapter website calendar<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For example, through the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation\u2019s Adopt-A-Stream program, our chapter has adopted a portion of Kings Fork Road in Suffolk stretching from the chapter park’s front gate entrance all the way to the intersection of Kings Fork Road with Route 10.<\/p>\n

\"\"Also, our chapter member volunteers help cleanup the Nansemond River (at Clean-The-Bay Day events\u00a0 in June as well are other scheduled dates) in conjunction with the City of Suffolk’s Litter Control\/Keep Suffolk Beautiful department to focus on the shoreline and\/or using flat bottom john boats and\/or kayaks\/canoes to pick up trash from the river.\u00a0 Sometimes we partner with other local conservation groups on these cleanup efforts as well.\u00a0 You can contact our chapter’s Save-Our-Streams Chair\/Clean Water Liaison<\/a> for more information about scheduled River Cleanup events and how to participate.<\/p>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"Additionally, our chapter member volunteers can help stack tires and collect old batteries at scheduled City of Suffolk Tire Amnesty Recycling Day events.\u00a0 You can contact Chapter Board Member Mike Lane<\/a> for more information on how to participate in these events that typically are held at the Carolina Road transfer station location.<\/p>\n
