Adopt-A-Road
Adopt-A-Road is a volunteer litter control program sponsored by the City of Apopka. Adopt-A-Road allows citizens to enhance the level of community pride in their surrounding area by reducing litter. Participants agree to pick up trash and litter in the right-of-way or median along roads they adopt, as often as necessary to keep the area clean.
Adopt-A-Road does not attempt to set standards for community cleanliness. It does, however, aim to promote neighborhood cohesiveness and to project an attractive city with a comfortable quality of life.
Joining the Adopt-A-Road Program is a nice way to get acquainted with your neighbors. There are no costs involved in joining Adopt-A-Road and only a little of your time.

Adopt-A-Road is built on the concept that volunteers at the local level, helping to keep their roads cleaner, will help build more community pride. This in turn will contribute to a safer city and retention of property values.Neighborhood Cohesiveness
