2007 Woody Weed Roadside Cleanup

Due to the great response to the Roadside Cleanup last year and a few comments about having only 10 on a team; 2007 saw us change the name of the cleanup to Landcares Woody Weed Roadside Cleanup. We contacted selected motivated people on roads and encouraged them to get anyone along their road to participate in clearing their 1km stretch of woody weeds. As the previous year the Team had the entire month of May to have their roadside done. Also same as last year was the restaurants, butchers, bakers & clubs donating food and wine to the team who completed their stretch which was pulled out of the hat in a draw.

A staggering 32 teams put their hands up and we cleaned up even more roads than the year previous. Everyone was proud of the job that they did and the roadsides looked fantastic again.
The winning team of the food & grog draw was that of lower Colins Head Road & Allendale Drive.

Another great showing of community spirit and Island pride and lovely to behold.
