stanley Report post Posted February 23, 2006 On Saturday, 3/11, the Arizona Hunters Who care organization is once again coordinating the twice annual boarder trash pick-up day. For anyone who hasn't been, this is really a great thing. It's a great cause, and you'll meet some nice folks. Last spring the volunteers picked-up close to 50,000 pounds of trash! The base location will be at Three Points Veterans Park this year, as opposed to down south by the Arivaca road. Here is a cut & paste from a flyer that was put together with some details: Information: Volunteers will be able to pick up trash bags from an AZ Game and Fish employee in Three Points at the Three Points Veterans Park. The Park is located approximately 1 mile south of Robles Junction on the east side of Highway 286. Bags will be distributed from camp starting at 6:00am. Bags can also be picked up in Amado if volunteers coordinate with Hunters Who Care prior to the event. Volunteers are encouraged to go to areas that they are familiar with to pick up trash. If volunteers are not familiar with the area they can contact Gabriel Paz, Lance Altherr or Bob Boido before the event and they can either provide them with a map or send them to a location to meet with a landowner or volunteer that can direct them to an area to clean up. Dumpsters will be provided at the Three Points Veterans Park. All volunteers are encouraged to check in with the volunteer coordinators for raffle tickets, food, and refreshments. The raffle will be offered for volunteers of the event and tickets will be given for each bag of trash collected. Who is ?Hunters Who Care,? they are a group of hunters, guides, sportsmen, hunting clubs, and various other groups who are tired of seeing the desert littered with trash. They have come together to clean up our desert and to help landowners who are overwhelmed with immigration problems. For more information please contact: www.azhunterswhocare.org Lance Altherr (Hunters Who Care) azhunterswhocare@hotmail.com Bob Boido (Safari Club Intl Tucson Chapter) 622-1216 day/ 883-1984 or 490-8367 Officer Gabriel Paz (AGFD) 520-883-0487 or gpaz@azgfd.gov The Arizona Deer Association will be cooking lunch (burgers & dogs) for all of the volunteers.
