March 1- May 31 is the Great American Cleanup in Arkansas. At least two of our communities have taken the challenge to have a community-wide cleanup.  Delight members cleaned up their downtown in March and Eudora used Spring Break week to do a city-wide spring cleaning. (see photo below)

Will your community take the challenge and have a cleanup? Let’s make our communities sparkle!  Send us a photo of your cleanup event and we’ll post it here.

Keep Arkansas Beautiful will provide trash bags, bottled water, banners, T-shirts, etc for your cleanup project if you register your event with them.  For more information and registration forms visit the website at  www.keeparkansasbeautiful.com.  Coordinator Sarah Wruck can be contacted at 1-888-742-8701.
