ADOPT-A-HIGHWAY CLEAN-UP
Ongoing GCDP has adopted a stretch of M-46, and three times a year, our members volunteer their time to keep our local roadways clean. During our July 2017 clean-up, though, we found more than trash along the highway. We found three abandoned kittens, 3 weeks old. Thanks to some quick work by one of our volunteers, all three kittens were in a new foster home by the end of the day, where they will be raised and then adopted out. All members of the Adopt-a-Highway crew must first go through safety orientation, including MDOT's safety guideline video. |
