Picking It Up in Highland


Fifteen volunteers hit the streets early Saturday morning, May 24 (hoping to beat the heat by starting at 8:00 am) to pick up litter. Our Neighborhood Clean-Up--co-sponsored by Shreveport Green, note our new lime green tee's--rid Highland's streets of about 35-45 bags of trash.

Our clean team worked Creswell, Highland, Gilbert, Olive, Centenary and parts of College and 1000-1100 blocks of streets between Fairfield and Southern. A special thanks to all our helpers and to Times reporter April Reynolds who came out to tout our efforts for The Shreveport Times. We appreciate the community support.

Don't put our neighborhood down, pick up litter when you see it.
