Trash Bash occurs rain or shine, unless there are severe weather conditions.

Time
Trash Bash is a half day event and begins between 8:00/8:30 am in the morning and ends at 1:30 in the afternoon. Start time, registration and end time vary from location to location. Please go to the individual cleanup sites for details.

How to...
To get started, pick a cleanup site near you.Volunteer at any of the sites and receive:
Free Lunch
Entertainment
Door Prizes
T-Shirts (T-shirts will be handed out on a first come/first served basis)

This ain't no Louisiana thing it is a Texas thing....


Hey anyone know the difference between a TEXAS ZOO and a LOUISIANA ZOO ????



TEXAS ZOO - they have the critter in a special enclosure or habitat with a little plaque giving the Common Name - Scientific Name - and Habitat statistics for the critter....

LOUISIANA ZOO - they have the critter in a special enclosure or habitat with a little plaque giving the Common Name - Scientific Name - and the best three ways to cook and serve that there critter over rice....

This is a good cause and whether your able to make it this weekend to a cleanup location or not just do your part by not littering and picking up any trash you may see while riding around.

It doesn't matter if your in Texas or Louisiana we all want our waters beautiful and unharmed for generations to come.

Giga, I'd meet you out there but I'm committed to a Charity Cook Off Saturday AM.

I'll be in the area late that afternoon or perhaps Sunday.

How come when I throw an old Bar-B-Q pit in da water it is called litter but when da government sinks an old battle ship in da water it is called artificial habitat?

Post Re: Texas - Bays and Bayous Cleanup
Just got back home from our local cleanup....

Had kids bussed in from 3 school districts - Cub, Boy & Girl Scout troups
and over 300 people involved at our location alone.... Best part was the
kids outnumbered (and outworked) the adults - learning hopefully a lifetime
lesson on litter prevention and to put "Waste in it's Place" !!!
