These letters should reach every man, woman and child if all businesses will do this simple thing.
This is our very best opportunity to curtail littering. Post a copy in a window or an office. Encourage others to do the same. We must reach your church, clubs etc. to make it successful.

Stewards of The White Oak River Basin have recently cleaned Pettiford Creek, Hadnot Creek, Queens Creek, the spoils island across from The Wildlife Ramp in Cedar Point on Rte 24.and the shore line between Hammocks Beach State Park and Swansboro..

These areas will not have to be revisited for Big Sweep. We paddle for fun and pick up all trash as we go. If you would like to join us let us know. We do have fun. One newcomer said he never had so much fun doing good! We usually have an extra canoe or kayak you can use.

If you want to sign up to have your State Road included in the Adopt-a Highway program, we can help you with that.

“We The people” are doing the littering. Only “We The People” can stop it. We are the source of litter, this will stop it at the source. Those that don’t stop face the prospect of a fine.

Let’s truly make “America, The Beautiful, from sea to shining sea”, America we can all take pride in! Elmer
