The Equality Prince William Adopt-a-Highway Pick-up

Location: Ruby Tuesday

Sunday, 24 October 2021 — 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM

While COVID is still around, the E=PW board continues to support trash pickup for 2021. This will be our second of two events this year supporting our community and we hope you can come out and join us safely (appropriate social distancing and low/no contact).  There are only two pick-ups required this year.

E=PW participates in the VDOT Adopt-A-Highway Program which requires us to pick up trash along the side of our “adopted” highway. This Sunday, come on over to the Ruby Tuesday at the corner of the Prince William Parkway and Ridgefield Road, get your safety vest, big orange bag and head out with us to make the Parkway sparkle.

E=PW looks forward to seeing you there at 10 AM.

Contact us with your ideas!
