They're just naturals at it. Amber and Abbie, we’d just come home from Annabelle’s ballet and tap class, so she just wanted to wear that to pick up garbage, :-)

There's a local stream that could use a clean-up, you've inspired me to load up my crew. And I love the costume Annabelle is wearing. :) Great idea!

In fact, NWF is in my backyard and many, many families have devoted their yards to the NWF). I've considered working with our town to adopt a spot though I like the informal commitment of simply picking up trash around our townhouse community and neighboring streets. So far as S.C.S.U. goes, why not contact the student environmental group about setting up an anti-litering campaign? I remember last year I made a consistent effort at our YMCA that I was not happy that they did not recycle; after several weeks of receiving notes from me, they finally implemented a program that makes me smile every time I walk by it. One person can make a difference . . . at least, I'm pretty certain of that. Melody, for sure! Prasanna, um, who do you think inspired me to start picking up trash in the first place? You and Annabelle of course!
