Safety while participating in this “everybody wins” program is very important! Everyone is encouraged to wear brightly colored clothing and gloves, and orange vests are also available at the participating store locations and at VDOT Headquarters in Washington, Va. On curving roads, orange cones and designated “lookouts” are suggested to alert oncoming drivers.
Traditionally troublesome dumping sites may also be included in this program, but additional equipment may be needed. In such situations, contact Program Coordinator Hunt Harris at TFR Headquarters. Arrangements will be made for pick-up assistance and an equivalent bag i count evaluation will be made.
Volunteers are needed to help with bag counting, troublesome site clean-up and other aspects of the program, and may call 987-3366 to offer their services.
Throughout the TFR drive period there will be additional articles in the “Rappahannock News” about affiliated TFR projects, such as a “Trash Art” contest and “Instant Winner” surprises, as well as information
about litter and recycling
concerns in the
county and state.
