Village Clean-Up Day

We will be meeting at 8:00 a.m. this coming Saturday (the 10th), at Village Hall, to coordinate a (hopefully, weather permitting) 2 hour neighborhood clean-up. For those of us old enough to remember the 60s, it can be verified that the litter problem today is almost a shadow of what it was back then. But, after all of the awareness through the media, word of mouth, etc. over the past several decades, it's surprising that litter is STILL a problem.

But, it is.

We'll mostly be hitting the main drags in the Heights, keeping to sidewalks wherever possible. There will be refreshments at Village Hall, so if you're going to come out to help, please give me a call at 686-2385 to let me know, so that we can have enough for everyone. Bags and gloves will be provided. Hopefully, with more awareness through the coming years, we can eradicate the littering issues (hear that, Forest Park Drive drivers?).

Special thanks go out to Village Clerk Shauna Musselman for all of her hard work in getting this good deed up and running.
