“Leaders should be creating and developing future leaders. It is the youth that are coming and educating parents and grandparents on the importance of recycling and composting.”

“In our state, tourism is our second largest industry. And I believe the leaders understand people do not want to come to a dirtied and littered state and vacation. So, it (litter cleanup) is a high priority here, and I’m grateful for that.”
