How Gig Harbor and Key Peninsula residents can participate in Adopt a Road programs

People have very busy lives these days and do not wish to make long term commitments. Most adopt a road programs require a 2 year commitment before the road can be officially adopted.

EnviroCorps has partnered with businesses and individuals that have sponsored the adoption of various road sections. They may or may not wish to volunteer their time to pick up the litter. EnviroCorps first choice is to ask volunteers to pick up the litter. If no volunteers can be found we utilize LaborWorks temporary services. When volunteers assist us, we have more funds to help expand our programs.

To see where and when we need volunteers go to this module.

Listed here are the roads that are part of EnviroCorps litter free roads program on the Gig Harbor Peninsula. Click on the name for more information. If you would be interested in occasionally helping out in keeping one of these road sections litter free please contact me, Vernon Young, by Emailing Me Now or call (253) 265-6162.

At this time we have one officially adopted road and one unofficial adopted road section on the Key Peninsula. Unofficial means we have no sponsor or supporters for that section of road. To find out how you can help click on each road section.

Officially adopted: #7. (Key Peninsula HWY KPN)

Unofficially adopted: #8. (Crews road, 150th Ave KPN, and 128th St KPN)
Crews road runs through the Rocky Creek Natural Area. Key Peninsula residents and others have worked for years to clean up this area and build trails in the park. Your help is needed to keep in litter free

It takes $150 to assure a 2 mile section of road is picked up once. To adopt a road we need to pick it up at least every three months. A sponsor is needed to contribute $150 quarterly to meet the minimum requirements. Two road signs with sponsors name on them will be installed. LaborWorks temporary services or EnviroCorps volunteers do all the work.

Also if 5 supporters each contribute $10 a month or $120 a year we can adopt a section of road.

When making a contribution give us the number (#?) of the road section you would like to support or if it is simply a general Litter Free Roads program donation. The more support for a particular road section we have, the more often it will get picked up.

You can make a reoccurring monthly donation by clicking here NOW.

Thank you for your help.
