Highway cleanup on April 12

The Roswell Rotary Club has scheduled cleaning up its Rotary Mile along U.S. 285 north of the overpass beginning at 8 a.m. on April 12.

Club volunteers will meet just before 8 a.m. for coffee and snacks at Mile Marker 116.3, about one mile north of the overpass on U.S. 285.

It takes an ideal group of 12 people, a minimum of about 1.5 hours, to walk our mile on both sides of the highway. Your participation is encouraged to help keep our Rotary Mile from being trashy!

Gloves, trash bags, and safety vests will be provided.
