Project: Keep Our Desert Clean Cleanup
Project Location: Arizona

Description: On December 15, 2024, Tread Lightly! supported the Keep Our Desert Clean cleanup at Sycamore Creek in the Tonto National Forest in Arizona. Together 172 volunteers cleaned up a popular OHV and recreational shooting area in the desert, removing 11,360 pounds of trash to help leave this area better than they found it.

Thank you to the following partners for their support:

“Cleanups are important because they foster a sense of ownership in the OHV community. We are leaving the area better than we found it.”- Wes Hancock – Volunteer

“I like going to clean ups because I like seeing that I am making a difference. It’s also great to have the camaraderie aspect. Going out with friends and making a difference in my community.”- Vlad Pokha – Volunteer
