2025 WCC Adopt-a-Road- April 26th

As part of our Lead mandate, the Club is holding our annual Spring cleanup of Hessen Strasse on Saturday April 26th. Hessen Strasse has been a big part of the Club’s Tuesday rides for many years and keeping it tidy is one way we can give back to our local community.
We’re looking for volunteers to help with the litter pickup as well as folks who’d like to make a pot of chili or bake some treats to support the event.
We need 10 to 12 people for each of two litter pickup shifts (9-11 am and 11 -1), with lunch provided after each shift.
Please wear appropriate clothing and footwear and we’ll provide safety vests and a safety brief before starting.

Please sign up here if you’d like to participate and/or provide treats to support the event.

On the google docs form I’m only seeing a single option not two options for the two times unless the second option is already full?

Section 2 “page 2” provides members the option to select between the 2 shifts. I have removed the “option 1” option as it was not needed.

Thanks @KGale can I drag my son (and potentially my wife too) along or is it members only this year and do they have to fill in their own forms if they are coming? Not seeing a section for notes :slight_smile:

Hi Scott,

I can provide basecamp support (food for both shifts, shuttling volunteers to their starting point, etc.). I’ve also asked Kevin Scheerer if he could do the same, and he’s looking into his commitments that weekend to see if he’s available.

In the past, Kevin provided a carnivore option (e.g. pulled pork) and I did a veggie option (e.g. vegetarian chili). If he can’t make it that weekend I can probably come up with two options.

Hi, just seeing the thread here … I did reply I think before Kerry moved option 1 … I chose the morning shift and offered to bring cookies … just in case it did not get recorded correctly on the original form … hopefully no more surprise snow storms like I see outside my window now … I just made it back from a ride and then this … no wonder it was so windy lol.

@bdoberst that is awesome - thanks so much. Let me know what you hear from Kevin and if he can’t help out I’m sure we have others who will make some chili.

Rick you’re all signed up

Great Scott thank you! Rick

Hi,unfortunately, I cannot take a day off on the Saturday April 26th from work, but I would love to bring some cookies and bottle of water. If you provide me with the address to bring I will do so on Friday 25th. Thank you, Rei

I remember we were able to include non club members last year as well. I will double check but I believe they just have to sign the waiver to take part.

Thanks @Oliver_Smith !! It is next Saturday and we’ll meet at 4074 Hessen Strasse. John B Martin’s farm.

I’ll be wearing rubber boots based on the forecast. Looks like it will be wet “in the trenches”. At least better than snow!?
