We
Adopt a Highway!
The
Lake Group has signed up to keep a 2-mile stretch
of Highway 29 north of Lakeport free of litter: meetup
spot is the corner of Mockingbird Lane and Hwy 29.
Participation in this activity -- which is useful,
good exercise, fun, and great publicity for the Sierra
Club -- is open to all volunteers over the age of
16, members and non-members alike. If you want to
help out, either regularly or occasionally or only
once, please send an email to micheletq@pacific.net
to sign up.
