GoodYay Kinky! You can even show up halfway through and join in, and we'll welcome you. No need to "register." It's just good to know so we can make sleeping arrangements.
As long as "pilgrims" keep leaving trash along the camino, we'll keep cleaning it up!
We're the Ditch Pigs, and we've been hauling trash off the Palencia parts of the trail for YEARS now... And YOU can join in the filth and the fun!
Four people already are signed on for Ditch Pigs 2015, (they're flying in from UK and Switzerland) and it's a week earlier this year: the fun starts on 28 November, and goes on (usually) for four or five days. We cover the 80+ kilometers of meseta trail from San Nicolas de Puente Fitero all the way to Sahagun... and sometimes to Calzada del Coto! Hospitaleros who served Federation postings in 2015 can now become Ditch Pigs, and attend the big Encuentro de Hospis as well!
The work is strenuous, equipment is crude, weather is iffy... and your reward will not be in this world, unless good company, decent provisions, and a roof over your head count for anything.
Those who can't (or won't) pick up trash can help by contributing money to our Lunch Fund, which buys our meals and fuels the furgoneta that ferries us and our "discoveries" up and down The Way.
Camino Cleanup is a project of Peaceable Kingdom Moratinos. Step right up if you'd like to help out.
...perhaps a prize for the most 'interesting' bit of trash?...
Fortunately in December the mud's frozen until near midday. Keeps the smell at bay too!I'm happy to subsidize a wee incentive for porcine forays into deeper mud.
