Community volunteer Max Aguon collected over 1,000 pounds of trash over the weekend. Contributed Photo. 

Aguon said he collected trash from Tottotville in Koblerville to Pakpak Beach in San Antonio, Sugar Dock in Chalan Kanoa, Minachom Atdao in Susupe, Beach Road, and Micro Beach in Garapan.

Aguon noted that the Division of Parks and Recreation does not assign staffers to public beaches during the weekend and this is the reason he conducts cleanups in those areas.

Aguon was recently recognized by the Rotary Club of Saipan for his outstanding service to the community.
