Highway 20 Trash Pickup

About the Highway 20 Cleanup

The Long Lake Area Association participates in Minnesota’s Adopt-a-Highway program and maintains a seven-mile stretch of County Highway 20 along the east side of Long Lake. Each spring and fall, LLAA volunteers pick up roadside litter, helping keep the Long Lake area clean and protecting the surrounding landscape.

Fall 2026 Cleanup Event Canceled

The Saturday, September 26 Highway 20 Cleanup has been canceled due to the weather.
Volunteers who expressed interest will be contacted about opportunities to clean a section of the road on their own time.

Why It Matters

Regular roadside cleanups improve the appearance of the Highway 20 corridor, remove litter and debris from the surrounding landscape, and give LLAA members, families, and friends a hands-on way to care for the Long Lake community.

How to Volunteer

Interested in helping with a future cleanup or cleaning a section of road on your own? Email us. We may be able to assign you a section of road to clean at another time.
