Adopt-A-Spot Programs

One of the best ways to volunteer is to adopt-a-spot!  You can choose from a variety of spots through a few programs.  Once you've adopted your spot(s) then follow the instructions to keep that area clean and take care of it.  Make sure you report your efforts!  Below are the types of 'spots' available for adoption for you, your family, your neighborhood, your business, etc.
