G's, I want to thank Donna for putting this together. It's a great idea and it's time for the Gyros to give something back to the community. The time requirement for Adopt-A-Highway is very small. As Donna stated, I will also be collecting signatures but this does not mean that you are required to show up but we need the signatures. It sure would be nice to have a contingent of Gyros on a stretch of Norwood Road helping to keep it clean. Guys - this is only 4 times a year. I think we can do that. Family members can join in too. It'll give our club some visibility and, like Donna said, maybe we can earn a little respect in the process.
