Pismo Beach Rotary: Highway Clean up for 20 years …

by  • 

The Rotarians of Pismo Beach have been picking up trash along Highway 101 in Pismo Beach for over 20 years.

The Rotary Club of Pismo Beach / Five Cities has been performing community-building projects for over 40 years. One of the most consistent projects has been the monthly highway cleanup project, with over 200 individual outings to ensure the trash from Highway 101 is always collected to help keep our community clean and safe.

Every month, a group of Rotarians gather outside of Oxford Suites to begin the monthly ritual of safely walking along the highway and frontage road to collect all the discarded trash from vehicles visiting our community. They split into groups of 2 with bags, pickers, and helmets provided by the California Department of Transportation.

Community leaders who have taken a leadership role in keeping the highway clean: Hap Harbert, Marcus Harmon, Anita Shower, Terry Fibich, and Paul Holden have all chaired the highway clean-up committee

If you are interested in assisting with any of the Pismo Beach Rotary projects, they love to make connections and welcome new volunteers.
