We can be part of the problem or part of the solution. YOUR choice
I may have heard that somewhere else.
It is contagious -example. Fast food parking lot. I noted a passenger intentionally dropping a bag out the window. I went over and picked it up - right next to their car looking the passenger in the eye - I put it in the trash can 10 feet away. Moments later I saw the driver get out and walk his trash to the bin. I was just another customer who chose to have a cleaner world.
Example - next to my house is a commons parking area - it is MY commons parking area. Visitors of a neighbor intentionally threw out a beer can. I walked over and said - I believe you dropped this....would you like me to put it in recycling for you?
Part of the problem or part of the solution... doing nothing or complaining is part of the problem BTW
Our JOB is to be mentors. We can say.. " This is the cleanest public event because we care" as we help educate those around us. " This event is run by 5000 volunteers who really care that this is the world's best event."
As AV continues to be a major public venue ..... Many day visitors may not know of the history, the ethic, the level of volunteerism , the months of dedicated service or the years of continued attendance that families from around the world come to be part of. They just know it has lots of cool planes. It's our job to educate - to create a friend of aviation and friend of EAA.
Be part of the solution.
