Hope you are thinking of something you can do for Earth Day this month.
Since I’m a member of the Perkins Community Chamber of Commerce, I decided I’d help organize our annual Trash-Off event.
It’s pretty simple. Volunteers from all over Oklahoma just go out and pick up trash in their area.
We are going to provide donuts and juice for breakfast and box lunches for our volunteers.
We’ll also have prizes! The largest group to show up and help will win $50 in Perkins Bucks. The group or person who picks up the most trash will win $100, and $50 will go to the person who finds the most unusual item.
In years past, there have been some odd things found – a hamster cage (complete with dead hamster), and last year someone found a set of fingerprints.
If you can’t help out around Perkins, please find a little stretch of roadway or a park that needs a little TLC. Everyone will thank you!
