City clean up commences Monday, Volunteers needed

Posted 5/05/10 (Wed)

The annual Chamber of Commerce Cleanup Night will be Monday, May 10.

The clean up is a three-part operation. Volunteers will gather Monday night to pick up trash from roadside ditches, parks and other open areas. Other volunteers and city workers will take trucks and trailers to pick up large curbside items that people want to dispose of. Finally, the city Transfer Station will be open extended hours to accept any other items people want to dispose of properly.

Volunteers should meet at the Transfer Station in the Industrial Park between 4-5 p.m., where work assignments will be handed out. Chamber board member Kevin Flaagan reminds people to bring work gloves and wear durable shoes or boots because this will be dirty work.
