"Stop unwanted trash" campaign begins

A campaign has begun to help people ask the T&G to stop throwing trash on their lawns.

The Pleasant Area Community Team has begun a “Stop Unwanted Trash” campaign "to end the Worcester Telegram & Gazette’s distribution of advertisement circulars on sidewalks and curbs across Worcester."

If you are tired of throwing these ads away, you can download a form, add your address, maybe have your neighbors add their addresses, and return it to the Neighborhood Network Center or directly to the Telegram & Gazette.

Or, you can e-mail your address to: netwkctr at verizon dot net

Even more photos.

Jeff "Wormtown Taxi" Barnard is also frustrated: ". . . I insisted that getting a 'free newspaper' carelessly tossed into my yard was nothing more than unlawful littering. Anybody else, I pointed out, would AT LEAST make an effort to ensure that the advertising material was either lodged inside my storm door."
