#GrabABagSC challenge comes to Darlington with chance to win $100
Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette and PalmettoPride want South Carolinians to grab a bag and clean up our communities.
Grab A Bag SC is a statewide litter pickup challenge inspired by Evette’s own experience picking up in her home community and even during her family vacations.
On Nov. 16, Evette will kick off Grab A Bag SC in Travelers Rest with a press conference followed by a litter pickup event in her hometown. Citizens across the state are encouraged to go out and do the same on that day – grab a bag and pick up litter.
“We are all blessed to live in South Carolina, a place filled with natural beauty and abundant resources,” said Evette. “Just like all of you, I love this state, and I am confident that if we all do a little bit, together we can have a tremendous impact.”
After you’ve picked up your bag, challenge three friends to do the same. Just tag them on your favorite social platform and use #GrabABagSC.
The City of Darlington Beautification Board will participate in the #GrabABagSC campaign with an event from 9 a.m. to noon Nov. 16. Volunteers should meet at the City Administration Building, 410 Pearl St., across from Rose’s and Piggly Wiggly.
Individuals, or teams of four, can register to win $100 in Walmart gift cards. Litter will be weighed in at the City Administration Building.
PalmettoPride is coordinating the event and has a signup page on www.palmettopride.org. They are asking for participants to sign up before Nov. 16 and to post a picture with the hashtag #GrabABagSC following your cleanup.
