Adopt A Green Area

By Sherry Pesut and Del Skaggs

We have a program similar to Adopt A Highway that the State uses, but ours is for our green areas. The idea is to pick up trash and sticks in each of the areas. Below is a list of the green areas. These are the names we call them, where they are located and who has adopted them:

We thank all of you who have volunteered, for helping us in our beautiful green areas. If you are moving from the area or unable to do the area anymore please call Sherry at the number above.

Thanks again to all of you.
