Adopt A Mile Trash Pick-up on Old Powder Springs Road

Come help MIC volunteers pick up litter along Old Powder Springs Road. Our community looks a whole lot better when we are done! It’s not glamorous, but it’s a great way to give back.

Usually it takes less than an hour for volunteers to pick up the trash that has accumulated and collect the orange bags in a central location for the county to pick up. Bags and MIC safety vests are provided. Wear sturdy shoes or boots and bring gloves if you’d rather not use the latex gloves we provide. It’s great to see our neighborhood clean and neat. And, each time we clean up our mile, there seems to be less trash to collect, so we are confident that we are making a difference.

Children under 13 are not allowed on the cleanups for safety reasons. Children 13 and over must be accompanied by an adult.

We will meet up at the Mableton Pentacostal Church, 1000 Old Powder Springs road. Email Jeff Padgett at adoptamile@mableton.org to RSVP. It’s not required, but if you do, we will keep you posted on any postponements due to weather. Thanks!!
