50 girls, who were to become Swazi maidens for the famous Umhlanga/Reed Dance ceremony, participated in our first cleanup of a very polluted area on the outskirts of town.  Approximately 1/2km was covered during a 50-minute period. The girls certainly learnt how to recognize both old and new rubbish. By the end point, attitudes had already shifted in favour of trying to make community members responsible for his/her own rubbish.
