The public is invited to join the City of LaGrange for its monthly litter clean-up event Saturday, November 3rd, 8:00-10:00 a.m. The group will meet in the LaGrange Fire Department/Public Works parking lot, 115 Hill Street in LaGrange.
The City of LaGrange held its last litter pick-up event October 20th in the Hillside community. Dozens of people from the community, Youth Council, and City of LaGrange participated in this monthly event.
City Manager Meg Kelsey wanted to send a message to the community that the City of LaGrange is serious about cleaning up litter and rolled out the city’s campaign, “Leaving LaGrange Better Than We Found It.” The City of LaGrange closed non-essential business the morning of April 20th and more than four hundred employees picked up trash throughout the community.
LaGrange Mayor Jim Thornton, Troup County Commission Chairman Patrick Crews, West Point Mayor Steve Tramell, Hogansville Mayor Bill Stankiewicz, along with Troup County’s Keep Troup Beautiful have joined forces to help clean up the litter in the community.
If you would like to have a litter clean up in your neighborhood contact Scott Landa with Keep Troup Beautiful. For more information go to www.keeptroupbeautiful.com or call (706) 884-9922.
