The campus of Alcona Community Schools was looking SHARP after a morning litter pick up from these 8th graders. They cleaned up nearly 30 pounds of litter!

All things from food wrappers, to bottles to car parts to way too many cigarette butts. Their effort is counting towards the #1millionchallenge from Great Lakes Great Responsibility.

Many of the students commented that they are less likely to add to the litter problem and more likely to take part in a clean up. They also brainstormed ideas to help reduce litter in the future.

We made a video to highlight the day and you can see it on our Instagram page by clicking here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/Ck1K2zPD-m7/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
