What is this truck going to be used for? Picking up trash? Or hauling trash awat from clean-ups? Just thought people who read this would like more info.

It is great to see people doing things like this. I wish more people got involved instead of the same people time after time.

Again great job to all those involved I personally wish to thank you.

this is really cool.

BUT, what is with LEO/Leo? I don't get it.

At first I was also confused (I thought "Leo" stood for Law Enforcement Officer) but after thinking about it awhile I remembered "Leo the Lizard" is the "mascot" of the trash program, in fact you can see him on the sign setup in the back of the truck icon_smile.gif
jhitesma
The "Leo the Lizard" campaign is based (almost too similarly) off a similar campaign the DMV in AZ has been doing. The DMV campaign has a bird who's name I can't remember....I have a copy of it here on my desk somewhere from my last registration renewal but can't find it. It's basically identical to the LEO cartoon that's out there only with a bird and AZ law quoted instead.

It's a little slip of paper about the size of a standard envelope that gets included with all DMV corespondance. Other than the law cited it's word for word the same as the LEO campaign.

As far as I can remember the name Leo was chosen because it sounded good in front of "the Lizard". Though the law enforcement association is probably not disliked either since the message is if you litter you will get a ticket.

The LEO campaign is very similar. It's also a slip of paper about the size of an envelope that's included with all ASA corespondence and included by other partners in the program with their stuff (some stores include them with orders, UDG put it in their welcome paper that kind of thing.) Then there are also the "litter free zone" banners with Leo on them.

I thought I had a link to a graphic of the Leo flyer somehwere but can't find it right now. I'm pretty sure it's been posted here before though, and if not it's on page 6 of the latest ASA newsletter: http://www.americansandassociation.org/doc..._newsletter.pdf

Nice talking to you last week Tim.

I gave the Leo the Lizzard bags to a big camp at Wash 12 and a little speech about the trash problem and the camp used the bags to clean up. I picked up 3 camp sites that had bagged the trash and left it on the ground when they left. I am out of room at home now.

That middle picture with the 2 door Tahoe in the background and that silly looking dude with the black shirt is CRNACNAC and part of our crew picking up trash.

The guy driving that yellow truck was very nice and super helpful!

And many folks were picking up trash with the bags he handed out, plus he filled his truck with all the bags, very cool!

That was my 19th straight day in the dunes and that truck was a site for sore eyes.

O.K., now this is and OBVIOUS ACCOMPLISHMENT...... Notworthy.gif

I remember when Tim first started posting about his one man show in his old truck and his selflessness in helping with these issues..... GREAT JOB...

Now I don't know if someone was smart enough to see his plight and decided he was the guy to make a true stand and was worth backing or if Tim went to the Power Players himself, BUT............... IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER.......

Notworthy.gif GREAT JOB GUYS....... it's nice to see a group move this quickly and actually make a show like this... it was getting real old hearing all the talk.
