Clean up efforts are being done by the following team, clubs and individuals. Way to go!


  

The Peoria Bicycle Club has been picking up the three-mile stretch of Grange Hall
Road from Route 91 to Evans Mill Road in Peoria County (Illinois) since Fall of
2002.  We typically pick up the road 2 times a year - once in Spring, and once in
Fall.  There was a lot of trash to pickup when we first started, but the amount has
seemed to level off over the past 2-3 years.  Optimal crew size for a pickup is 6
people, and the effort lasts about 2.5 hours. Our next pickup will be October 26th
(Sunday) @ 1:30 in the afternoon.  We meet on the West side of Peoria at LR Nelson,
and carpool out to the pickup site.
If you want to come and help us pickup trash

(you don't even have to be a club member!), please contact Mike
