Sisters on the Fly Adopt a Highway Program
“Keep Wyoming Beautiful”
(add your state)
I have traveled many highways and states during the last few years.
Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Colorado, Montana, South Dakota, New
Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, California and probably
some I have forgotten. As I travel with my trailer, I enjoy the magnificent views the highway can offer but I have found that our US highways are full of litter which is very disheartening.
Let’s band together and clean up the highways we travel. I contacted
the Wyoming Highway Department to get SOTF signed up in my area for the Adopt a Highway Program. Easy to participate and only requires a signed two year contract for two cleanings in a two mile area each year.
Wyoming has five districts, your state may have many more. There is a program coordinator you will contact. That coordinator will let you know what two mile sections are available in your district. I went for a drive to find the one I chose. The Highway department provides the bags, safety vests and safety instructions. You and your crew do the
rest!
After two successful cleanings you will receive a sign, click on this link to see more; AAH Safety Brochure-Web.pdf. All Sisters on the Fly signs will be consistent with this message, Sisters on the Fly, Rocky Mountain Region. (substitute your area). I envision our Sisters all over the US participating in this worthwhile project. Two days a year we can have a one day event to contribute our time and energy for making our highways clean. A lunch or dinner to follow, maybe an overnight camp out and include our Misters. So many ways to make this fun.
Come on ladies, let’s do this!
Please let me know if I can help you in any way. Let’s get out there and get our highways cleaner!
Thanks in advance for your participation.
