[Az-Geocaching] Adopt a highway

[Team Sprocket]

I think we all owe Sport Trac/k a great big "attaboy" for driving this issue
home with the appropriate authorities and, unbelievably, actually getting
something done about it!  Way to go, Will!  I think it's great news. Like
AZCachemeister said, "That's the best of both worlds...the median gets
cleaned up, and WE don't have to do it."   We can all feel a little more
pride when we pass that Adopt-a-highway sign.

 On a (barely) related note, the AJACS crew has developed a CITO Highway
Median Cleanup Kit that, if used properly, can be as equally effective as a
"contract crew."  Just like last year, will be giving one of these kits away
as a prize at the A.J.A.C.S. 2nd Annual Campout Event Cache (Mar. 17. 18 &
19.)   You can view the kit on the cache page (GCT6QK) or at this link:

DISCLAIMER:  It's a joke, folks.  Don't get your panties in a bunch.

I jumped a few levels and spoke with a higher up at ADOT last week regarding
> the median.  He drove the Beeline, inspected the median and agreed it was
> very bad.  He called back, thanked us for our "vim and vigor" but declined
> our offer.  He has hired a contract crew to clean up the median from about
> N. Mesa drive all the way to Shea.  They started today.  I saw them on the
> way to work.  I spoke with him a few minutes ago and he said they inspected
> the first mile after the crew passed and they had 30 bags from just the
> median in the first mile.  It may take a few weeks but they are working on
> it!  Next event we will hopefully see a cleaner median.
