Layton Garden Club Adopts US 1 for a day

 The  Layton Garden Club members organized a road-side cleanup event in the City of Layton January 4th. Effort was concentrated along US #1 for a mile on either side of the city, including some side roads.

Fortified (or lured) by coffee and donuts provided by the Layton Garden club, 45 residents from Layton, Conch Key, Marathon and Key Largo spent the morning scouring the roadsides for trash. KML staff also lent a hand in the cleanup.The Monroe County Sheriff's Office pitched in, providing patrol cars with flashing lights to alert passing motorists, while officers rolled up their sleeves and gathered debris.   3320 lbs of trash was hauled away by the MCSO truck! But not before refueling with hotdogs and hamburgers hot off the grill. This may become an annual event!
