Call to clean up
Peninsula residents should consider taking part in Clean-Up Australia Day on March 5, according to McDonald's Woy Woy owner/operator Mr John Ursino.
"We'd like residents to think about how important it is to preserve the environment for future generations and get out there and lend a hand on Sunday, March 5," he said.
McDonald's has been a sponsor of Clean Up Australia since it began in 1989.
"McDonald's is committed to cleaning up every day and we hope our local community will join us in taking up the challenge to make this year's Clean Up Australia Day the most successful yet."
McDonald's Woy Woy Litter Patrol operates each day, with crew members scouting the area surrounding the restaurant and picking up any rubbish which may have been disposed of carelessly.
"By keeping our restaurant and local community tidy, we are attempting to set an example to our customers to take care of the Central Coast by not littering," Mr Ursino said.
"Although there is only a minority of people who litter, it does detract from our community and I encourage people to participate by registering a site to clean up or help clean up at an already registered site."
