I was thinking in Vegas when I was the vice
president of SincityZ we adopted a highway, and I think at least 4 - 5 time a year as a club we pulled over and picked up trash. What we got? The corvette club to copy us, tons of other car guys know we existed, and a good way to give back to the place we loved. If any other I club members would be interested I can look into it.

 

Also give us an even better rep good for thought.

 

Sounds like a great idea. A big *** I-Club banner setup on trailing vehicle, while were parked picking up trash, so everyone knows who made this highway super sparkly

 

Also when u adopt the highway the put up a sign that says we own or unless Hawaii is different.

 

Sounds like a great idea. How's about a small committee to make this happen?

 

yes josh, I agree! Hell, if its just me and you josh, I'd still participate. Just name the place and time, ill try my best to be there. Or just video conference a time.

 

Since i've done this before, i can see what paper work and all that has to make this happen. That is if i have the green light from the old timers?

 

Before you spend any time on it, let me look into it. Some of you might know that I am a Project Manager at the State DOT, Highways Division, so it shouldn't be hard for me to find out. FYI, a few years back I checked on it for my wife's high school graduating class and was told that all the routes were taken.

 

Here is what i have found guys.

It had a listing of available roads, but had nothing on it, and was not upgraded since October 2012.

 

I just checked with our Adopt a Highway coordinator. She said that all the State routes are taken, the waiting list is around 50 deep and doesn't move very quickly.

On a more positive note, the City has a "Adopt a Block" program which is similar but is smaller in scale. Our Adopt a Highway coordinator is meeting with the City coordinator this week, she will let me know what she finds out. I can post the findings if anyone is interested.

 

That's good to know, Ross. Pleas let us know if any are available and when.

 

I'm in when this happens.

 

Hey that adopt-a-highway idea is great. Whenever I saw those orange shirts I thought .. "hey, what a great way to do some community service for a good cause"..

I never thought it would be 50-deep though, lol!

If there's a will, theres a way yo.

 

Maybe we should start an Adopt-a-Pothole program. Oahu would love the sh|t outta us!
