Don Terry: Environmental Director of epic proportions
What kind of a person does it take to show litter who’s boss? What kind of a person, after putting trash in its place, will strike an epic pose over his defeated enemy? His name is Don Terry, Environmental Director for Brighton, CO 80602, and he has no problems making his community a cleaner, better place.
On September 13, Don and three volunteer participants cleaned up a park in the Brighton area. Don mentioned in an e-mail to us that the cleanup area is popular, thus unfortunately attracting a lot of litter. In just a short time, Don and his group collected two large bags filled with trash, and anther two large bags stuffed with recyclables. “It was a quick project, but a lot was picked up from a heavily used area,” he mentioned in another message to us.
During his cleanup, Don noticed how badly infested the area was with dog “business.” This unfortunate occurrence often happens when dog owners don’t have a way of picking up after their pet. In response, Don contacted the Brighton Parks Department about installing a dog bag dispenser in the park. He is waiting to hear back.
The Clean World Movement team would like to thank Don and his group again for their hard work! We are proud to have someone who puts trash in its place, and who is willing to go out of his way to make his community cleaner and better.
