Trashing the Trash!

July 13, 2020 by Marcus Martin

 

Saturday, July 11th started as a challenge however, we kept pushing to the mark and collected (Maya – 2nd yr Daisy Girl Scout – 16.5 lbs) and (Marco – 1st yr Weblo Cub Scout 31.0 lbs). So, as I originally stated, the day started kind of rocky. I dropped Marco off with his Den Leader and within 10 minutes I got the call that he had thrown up. Oh boy! He rested and began to feel better, so we tried again. It was roughly 4 PM when we started and about 5:20 PM when we finished.

Marco’s Trash Collection

We left our residence in Upper Marlboro in our neighborhood of Marlton. As I drive home, I often see a lot of litter on the main road of Heathermore Blvd. Well, we didn’t have to go far. Today was a win win. My kids put down their tablets and moved from in front of the TV to do some good in our community. I made it into a contest. Maya was winning at the start, however, Marco found abandoned two (2) 5 gallon paint buckets. Our official winner is Marco. Truthfully, we are all winners that thought enough to Trash the Trash on today’s date.
