Road Side Cleanup

The University of Idaho and Washington State University 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 30 battalion members split up into two groups; each starting at different mile posts and working their way towards each other. 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 comradery. 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.
