“Join the annual Plateau Pickup and help keep Highlands beautiful,” says Highlands Chamber of Commerce/Visit Highlands N.C. Executive Director/ Kaye McHan.

The event kicks off at 8:30 A.M. Saturday, April 26, at Kelsey-Hutchinson Founders Park on Pine Street, where volunteers will receive their assignments for stretches of US 64, NC 28, NC 106, and parts of
downtown Highlands.

Participants will be provided with everything needed for the cleanup effort, including a light breakfast, safety vest, gloves, pick-up tools, garbage bags, and a Thank You t-shirt. After the morning’s work, a boxed lunch will be served back at the park at 12:00 P.M.

“Last year, despite the cold weather, we had an amazing turnout, and volunteers collected an incredible amount of debris,” says Ms. McHan. “It’s heartwarming to see our community come together to beautify our roadways.”

Plateau Pickup is organized by the Highlands Chamber of Commerce/Visit Highlands, NC. To participate, email events@highlandschamber.org or call (828) 526-5841.
