On Oct. 10 at 2:30 p.m., the Monticello Key Club organized a dedicated litter pluck along route 42, displaying their commitment to community service and environmental stewardship. The event brought together enthusiastic club members who volunteered their time to make a positive impact on the local landscape.
Participants gathered at the designated starting point, equipped with gloves, trash bags, and a shared determination to beautify their surroundings. As they walked along the road, they picked up litter and debris, raising awareness about the importance of keeping public spaces clean. The club members worked collaboratively, fostering camaraderie and teamwork while contributing to a cleaner environment.
The litter pluck not only aimed to remove waste but also served as an educational opportunity. Members engaged with passersby, encouraging them to take part in preserving the beauty of their community. The event highlighted the role of youth in promoting environmental responsibility, inspiring others to join in similar efforts.
By the time the litter pluck concluded, the group had collected a significant amount of trash, leaving route 42 cleaner and more inviting for residents and visitors alike. The Monticello Key Club’s initiative exemplified the power of community involvement and the impact that dedicated volunteers can have on their surroundings. This successful event reinforced the club’s mission of service and highlighted the importance of active participation in environmental preservation.
