What is the Great American Cleanup in Troup County?

Keep Troup Beautiful is getting ready for spring with the 2009 Great American Cleanup set for Saturday, April 18th. The largest annual community improvement program encourages volunteers to pick activities to beautify Troup County. Groups can participate by picking up litter, planting gardens or painting unsightly buildings or other projects.

The first 200 participants who register by March 31st receive a free meal deal coupon donated by Burger King and a free T-shirt. Volunteers can participate before or on April 18th. Registered participants are invited to the Chamber of Commerce Plaza in LaGrange or Calvin Hipp Veterans Memorial Park on Main Street in Hogansville between 11:30am and 12 noon for refreshments, entertainment and door prizes. Cash prizes will be awarded in both locations for the most litter collected by groups 5 and more ($50), groups with 4 and under ($25) and the most unusual item found ($25).

Volunteers can pick-up registration pledge forms at local businesses in West Point, Hogansville and LaGrange by April 8th, or register on-line. Pick your own area or call KTB for an assignment. Concerned citizens can call (706) 884-9922 to report littered grounds around their business, school, church or neighborhood, and groups will be assigned to that area. Free gloves and trash bags are available upon request.

The 2009 Great American Cleanup national sponsors are Wal-mart, Exxon-Mobil, Burger King, Milliken, Diverse Power and Coca-Cola.
