A humorous cartoon shows diverse volunteers, the Waterway Warriors, exhausted from the summer heat, with a sign reading 'No Cleanups in August - Too Hot to Handle!'.

A humorous illustration of the Waterway Warriors taking a well-deserved break during the month of August because it’s just too hot. Show a diverse group of cartoon-style volunteers — men, women, boys, and girls of all ages — wearing yellow shirts and exaggeratedly exhausted from the heat. One person is dramatically melting over a barrel like a popsicle, another is lounging in a kiddie pool with sunglasses and a cold drink, someone is fanning themselves with a trash grabber, and there’s a beach umbrella stuck in a barrel for shade. A fun, bold sign reads: 'No Cleanups in August — Too Hot to Handle!' The sun blazes overhead with comical intensity. Use bright, summery colors and playful expressions to emphasize the comic heat exhaustion. See more
