The Association of Corporate Counsel (ACC) is the world's largest organization serving the professional and business interests of attorneys who practice in the legal departments of corporations, associations, nonprofits and other private-sector organizations around the globe.
The Community Service Committee has partnered with the Friends of the W&OD to organize a trail clean-up on the W&OD in Arlington, VA.
We will meet at the Columbia Pike Park & Ride lot (4850 10th St S, Arlington, VA 22204) and will clean the section of trail that runs from Columbia Pike to S George Mason Dr.
Volunteers of all ages are welcome, including families and friends of ACC NCR members. Volunteers should bring their own gloves and should dress in clothes appropriate for picking up trash from in and around the thick brush that lines the trail (orange trash bags and a limited number of “grabbers” will be available for volunteer use).
Although parking is plentiful, feel free to ride your bikes to the activity! We will offer “bike valet” parking at the sign-up table (look for the canopy near the Park and Ride Lot).
Following the clean-up (between 10:00 – 10:30 am), we have planned a friendly 10-mile “no-drop” bike ride to Gravelly Point, ending at Best Buns in Shirlington for some post-ride treats!
In the event of inclement weather, we will push the clean-up activity to April 12 at the same time/place.
Contact ACC NCR Community Service Committee Member Ben Lindorf (blindorf@ida.org) with any questions about the event.
