Walkabout: Litterers Trashing Tubbs Hill

Walkabout: I wish people would learn to respect (Tubbs Hill). It isn’t even July yet and the garbage on the hill is starting to pile up. Those that stay on the main trail may not see much of it but that’s because people go there to drink on the beaches and hidden areas all over the hill. I know most of these areas and try to clean some of them out every few days. But, I am just one person. If you are in the mood someday grab a bag and seek out the beaches and hidden areas and fill it up with what the litterbugs left behind.

Question: Have you ever picked up litter as part of a cleanup project, formally or informally? Did you learn from that experience?
