FlagFinder Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 i am going to start a new trend no one has metioned. Adopt-A-River. this program is put out by various states Dapartment of Natural Resoarces dapartments. it requires 2 years of service anually about every month or two excluding winter you will be cleaning up the shores of water bodies. this program is similar to adopt a highway. i would consider it safe and many locations are avaliable as the program hasnt fully kicked in and is unheard to the public but its there and the best part is YOU PICK THE LOCATION!!! let me hear how this sounds and what other CITO possibilities await us.

FlagFinder Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 if you want to look up your states dnr page and see if they offer this program you could do it annually or you could just do it once Quote Link to comment
