Roadside Cleanup

Road Side Cleanup

On November 7th, 2020 and April 10th, 2021 the battalion volunteered to clean up litter on the side of Highway 8 towards Troy. This event is the result of maintaining the unit’s “Adopt a Highway” presence. At least 20 battalion members split up into two groups; one starting at mile post 9, and the other at mile post 3. This was a great way for Midshipman to earn their volunteer hours and help the community. Not only does this event build discipline by spending a weekend to pick up garbage, but it also builds altruism. Additionally, members of the battalion were able to connect in a relaxed setting and grow as a team. This tradition will continue for future semesters as it brings the battalion together and simultaneously serves the community.
