Just recieved this email. Jose want to come see what your boys are leaving behind on your public lands?

Guys,

What i found this weekend is unbelievable. The destruction to our
hunting
areas is growing so fast I cant keep up with all of the bad spots
anymore.
I recieved a tip about an area just west of lake Pleasant, so I went to
see
for myself. I am still in amazement over the size of the area that is
covered sometimes 2' deep with illegal alien trash. The entire site is
close to 4 acres big. Completley covered in trash!!!!!! I never
realized
that this problem with trash from illegals extended so far north.
Please
see the pictures. If you cant, I will try and post them on the
internet
somewhere soon. There is already a cleanup of this area sponsored by
BLM
planned for May 20th. I think it would be great if hunters could join
in
and make this happen. This is a chance for all you guys from Phoenix
and
northern AZ to step up. Please RSVP to me if you can help!!!!!

cleanup:
contractor supplied dumpsters, garbage bags, porta potties, lunches,
and
workers comp coverage for all volunteers.
 
I'm suprised there was no response from the Illegal lovers/haters on this one. Anyway the guys who made it to the pick-up did a great job (I wasn't there).

"the Ironwood Forest National Monument Cleanup. We had 23 volunteers,
and
picked up 5380 pounds of shooting debris trash." Thanks AZHWC!!
