Folks,
I was driving around last week and started to take notice of the =
Adopt-A-Highway signs, and thought it might be a great benefit to the =
community (not to mention great PR) if the AZ Geocachers were to perhaps =
select a highway segment to maintain. I e-mailed Mark Schalliol with =
ADOT, and inquired about the program and asked for a list of available =
highway segments around Phoenix. He provided me with a list of 6.
SR87
Both directions MP181-182 (between Mcdowell and Gilbert)
Both directions MP186-187 (between Gilbert and Shea)
SB MP200.8-202.8 (near Four Peaks)
SR347 (Maricopa Rd) Both directions 184.24-185.25
SR587 (south of Chandler)
Both directions MP 218.6-221 (Jct 87 to RWCD canal)
Both directions MP 223-225 (Gila River to I-10)
The jist of the thing is this: ADOT would require 4x annually pickup of =
the area we would be assigned. I would also consult the powers-that-be =
and look to get approval for each cleanup as an event cache, which could =
conclude with a picnic/bbq at a nearby park. Another stipulation that I =
feel is critical is that a working group of 6-10 people would be needed =
for each cleanup. I'd truly hope I would be able to get at least a =
half-dozen of you out there to help cleanup.
I have all the contact information and would be willing to assume the =
role of coordinator for the venture. Let me know by either private mail =
or listserv what the interest is among the people.
BTW, we would get our own sign! Arizona Geocachers on an =
Adopt-A-Highway sign would be just too cool.
