TriSports.com has adopted a highway! This is a service in the Tucson area where a group of volunteers gather together and pick up trash on the side of a portion of road. Several employees gathered together on Saturday, February 20th to clean the two mile stretch of Catalina Highway between Houghton and Snyder.

The effort turned out to be a great success! We filled up a total of four trash bags, which is an amazing feat. At first glance, it seemed as though there wouldn’t be much to pick up, but when we got out there and started walking, it was amazing how much garbage there was.

Everyone who came out had a good time. It’s amazing how much fun you can have picking up other people’s litter. We think we may have enough parts to build a car.

The City of Tucson will shortly be putting up a sign to make our adoption official and we will be planning more clean-ups in the future.
