They picked up 94 VDOT issue orange plastic bags of roadside trash in addition to their other findings which didn’t quite fit the bag format. Their first place award is $300.

Their very close competitors, with 85 bags and grunge galore, were the “Quasimodo’s of Quaintance Road”, Barney and Mary O’Meara and Steve Kenny. Their second place award is $200. In third place were Jane Mullan and 4 the Hearthstone School Cooperative. They tallied in with 48 bags and also had numerous unbaggable extras. Their third place award is $100. Benefitting from the “Ventures” gleanings (at $2 per bag) will be Cub Scout Pack 123.
