Trash Cleanup Success

A big thanks to all who attended the 7th Arizona Hunters Who Care Trash Cleanup Day. A whopping 288 volunteers from around the state converged on southern Arizona to help out the wildlife habitat. We picked up a whopping 48,000 pounds of trash. The dumpsters were so full, that G&F had to use two of their big trailers to haul off trash, and many volunteers left with trucks full of trash.

The picture that many of you saw with the football sized area covered in trash has now been returned to wildlife habitat instead of a dump.

Thanks to our many sponsors:

Safari Club, Arizona Chapter

With their help we were able to give away a ton of stuff for free to our volunteers. And congratulations to the three volunteers who won rifles for their hard work.

Next year will be even better. More give aways, including..... Well, I will make you wait to hear what what awesome giveaways we will have next year.

to be continued......

Any illegals show up to help?? It's mostly their trash.

Not to help, but they did arrest some about 50 yds from our base camp, and many of the volunteers ran into them. Sorry we missed you D13er, maybe next year.

we got enough of their trash to clean up here in ca. I didn't throw anything out the window last time through Az.
