11/19/2007: "Thank You "Trash Masters""

Dear Editor,

My hat is off to the Trash masters and the San Juan County Road Department. I was driving on the Roche Harbor Road on 11/15/07. Between town and Consignment Treasures, I saw 9 people with vests on picking up trash along side the road.

I stopped to thank the 9th person and asked what was going on. I learned it was a group called Trash Masters and that the County provided the safety vests. What a heartwarming sight to see volunteers working so hard, and knowing that the local government is supporting them by providing safety vests.

My thanks and admiration to all the volunteers..
