Help needed to clean up Kickapoo Rail Trail
Over the years, trash and litter have accumulated along the Kickapoo Rail Trail corridor that is now visible with the removal of shrubs and trees.
The Vermilion County Conservation District is asking for volunteers to help beautify the Rail Trail with a clean-up day on Saturday, April 3 beginning at 10:00 a.m. The VCCD will provide trash bags and several litter “pick-up-sticks” but is asking all volunteers to please bring work gloves.
Volunteers will first meet and coordinate plans at South Main Street in Oakwood across from Sunset Funeral Home and Obie’s Arctic Chill. Volunteers may need to drive to alternate locations along the trail after coordinating plans. If you have any questions, please call Lara Danzl at 217-442-1691.
