Adopt a Highway

The Adopt-A-Highway Program covers a two mile stretch (both sides) along Algonquin Road (RT 62) from the bridge over the Fox River,east to Rt 25. Maybe you have noticed the signs as your come west on RT 62 from RT 25 or when you turn onto Hubbard coming from the west. This program gives alot of exposure to both members of the Parish and also the general public. It is an easy program to do as it only needs to be done a couple of times a year and rarely takes more than 2 hours to do on a Saturday Morning (and we are do to have the fall clean up Sept or early October).


We will be needing a new Co-Chairman for the Adopt-A-Highway program as Bill Burg wont be able to walk the two mile distance for some time. He has been the coordinator with the State of Illinois and lets them know when we are doing the sweep and when they can pick up the trash we collect ( we also get alot of cans for the recycle program we have). Aldo Simoni takes care of handing our the Colorful Vests and bags the state provides us each time we do this

So, lets have some one step up and take this on-its very simple to do and does not take alot of time. A great project for one of the newer Knights to get involved with and take charge. Call (847-323-6304) or email (wlburgjr@hotmail.com) for details
