DecaturGamer Group Organizer Decatur, IL Post #: 325	I noticed that on the intersection of Pershing and Woodford that there is an "Adopt a Street" sign where the street had been adopted by Rick Maurer. Is that OUR Rick Maurer?

Post #: 57	I asked him about it and I think he adopted half of Pershing Street! Which means he has to do a lot picking up trash so if you are one who throws things out the window up there, the less time he has to play games with you.

Post #: 2	I would love to adopt Rick as surely my boardgaming plays per month would go up significantly, however with two kids already in tow I think I'll have to pass at this time. That said, I think we can all agree that he deserves a good home. David P.S. In case you all weren't aware I've met Rick a couple times previously so (I think) can get away with this.

It enjoy being outdoors and doing something helpful to the community. Just don't expect me to be outdoors in this weather right now. I usually start going out in April. If the DG group is interested in adopting a street, I would recommend going down to the mayor's office a call. I believe that he took over the Adopt a Street program from the UOI Extension office. It would be a great way to promote the group and you are only required to clean up three times a year.

I remember you too David. We still have a Twilight Struggle match to complete. I think I also have a rematch with your son in Battlelore as well.
