The Community Development Agency (CDA) cleaned up our “adopted” LaBarr Meadows Road on Saturday, May 22, 2021. The effort comes at a critical time in the County’s effort to encourage litter pick-up, responsible recreation, and general stewardship of the Sierra foothills. Not only did participants from the agency’s team pick up 750 pounds of trash, but they were also welcomed by the community with waves, thumbs up, and general enthusiasm for the work being done.Want to get involved?
