Keeping our stretch of the highway trash free is one way to give back. Being part of the community is important, not just during election season.That’s why we, the Del Norte Republicans, have adopted one of the most littered segments in Del Norte County,” Karen Sanders, chairwoman of the Del Norte Republicans, said during the event.The Del Norte Republicans are responsible for cleaning their section of Highway 101 about 6 times a year. They average 13 bags of trash each time.
