In June of 2018, a Dayton resident was tired of seeing illegal dumps on the trails, so he posted several pictures on local Facebook groups that he captioned, “DAYTON PIGS!”
In response to the posts, a group five people got together with a couple trucks and a trailer to tackle one of these dumps. They made a short video about their adventure, which led to more people wanting to participate. Those who could not physically help, offered money to cover dump fees. This quickly led to a need to form a nonprofit organization, which would quickly spread out to other towns in Nevada.
