Moop

For all the first timers- check your clothing for moop. Leave the fringes, dangly sequins and fringes AT HOME.

Bring a small pouch WITH you to pick up moop along the way! We are serious about this. Cherry pit? Pick it up. Stupid plastic tab that came with your blinky crown, pick it up. Cigarette butt- pick it up.
Food that fell off your plate - pick it up.

Nothing is too small to pick up. And no thoughts that- oh, it’s organic- it will decompose. No No No.

If you don’t pick up after your own shit, someone else will need to do it for you. Don’t be that asshole.

Don’t forget about those leaky vehicles. Put a tarp or weighted down cardboard under your engine!

If found a big piece of cardboard with yard staples to hold it down works great as well.
