    Kudos for those volunteers. I appreciate very much the efforts these folks went to when they walked that runway. I hope their effort inspires others to do the same task at other ‘home fields’. Here’re four smiles for ’em, one for each pound of FOD! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

    If they found that much stuff, they waited too long from the last time they cleaned up.
