David Shirk: Let’s clean up the county on ‘Trash Day’

If every person picked up one piece of trash every day, there will be no litter problem. I am proposing a county-wide “Trash Day” on Saturday, March 17. Each person who wants to participate can sign up for a minimum of of one hour picking up trash in any area they choose. Let’s commit to litter pick-up.

David Shirk, Modesto
