On Saturday March 18, local Girl Scout Troop 815 teamed with the ladies from D&M Land Development to clean up the desert area surrounding Desert Hills Plaza at 7th Street south of the Carefree Highway. The four hour adventure yielded approximately 23 large yard bags of debris and a pile of litter containing a multitude of advertising signage, tires and bedding. The girls from Troop 815 earned money to help fund a trip to Colorado this summer where they will experience the outdoors including camping, fishing and horseback riding.
