The Texas Exes Fredericksburg Chapter announces its quarterly Adopt-a-Highway trash pickup initiative, scheduled for Saturday, March 21, 2026 at 9:00 a.m.

Volunteers should meet in the parking lot of Garrett Insurance (formerly Frantzen, Kaderli, & Klier), located at 108 Theodore Specht Dr, (directly across from the Post Office parking lot) at 9:00 a.m. for a brief orientation and to pick up a safety vest and Tx DOT trash bags. The staff at Garrett Insurance has graciously given permission for the Chapter to use their parking lot as a staging area for the highway cleanup and the Chapter is grateful to them for supporting its efforts.

Volunteers will divide into teams and each team will be assigned a section of the Chapter’s 2-mile stretch of Highway 87 North, from the outbound Adopt-a-Highway sign next to the Fredericksburg Hill Country Hotel north to the inbound sign. It is recommended that participants wear appropriate attire and footwear, and bring gloves, water, reach-it grabbers, and any other items deemed necessary to ensure a safe experience.

Anyone can participate with the Chapter in this community service and highway beautification effort. There is no pre-registration required, but those planning to participate should arrive on time for their supplies and assignments. The Chapter observes all safety guidelines, which will be briefly reviewed prior to the cleanup.
