*Topeka, Kan.* – Beginning, October 15, 2022, from 7:00 am to 9:00 am Mars
Wrigley will be hosting their second pick-up event on the north side of
Gary Ormsby Drive. Mars Wrigley is Shawnee County’s first Adopt-A-Roadway
group participant. Mars Wrigley Topeka associates and immediate family
members (at least 13 years old) will be participating in this event.



“Mars Wrigley associates are excited about this program and hopefully we
can get more organizations to follow in Shawnee County’s Adopt-A-Roadway
program,” said Mike Heatwole, Supply Excellence Manager, Mars Wrigley.



“Shawnee County appreciates all the volunteers’ efforts who assist in the
pickup events along the Shawnee County roadways,” said Curt Niehaus,
Director of Shawnee County Public Works.

“We hope more civic-minded businesses in Shawnee County take the
opportunity to adopt a roadway.”



The Shawnee County Adopt-A-Roadway program is designed to allow groups or
businesses with an interest in keeping our roadways litter-free a chance to
perform valuable service to their community.

Shawnee County Public Works provides trash bags and an ANSI Class II safety
vest and Shawnee County Solid Waste will pick up the filled trash bags for
each pickup event.



Motorists should be on the lookout for the groups as they clean the
roadsides.
