This will be our final trash cleanup for the spring season, and we are going to stay in the Northern area to ensure that the area is clean for the installation of the vault toilet later this Spring.

Join the Friends of Gold Butte as we pick up debris and garbage for a couple of hours and then gather for lunch, and a treat. Meet at the Friends of Gold Butte Visitor Center, 12 W. Mesquite Blvd, Suite 106 at 9:00 am and then we will caravan to the work site. Those of you who have 4WD vehicles can choose to go further up the road, and the rest of us can work along the road where 4WD isn’t necessary.

Friends of Gold Butte will supply buckets, trash bags, gloves and a treat. Be sure and dress appropriately for the weather, and wear something you don’t mind getting dirty. We will be back by early afternoon.

• What to bring
Bring plenty of water and a lunch for yourself, and remember to wear sunscreen, closed toe shoes and a hat.
