Gunn McKay, D - Utah, urges Office of Economic Op portunity funding of the "Green Thumb" work projects be continued. The Green Th'unb program in Utah has placed senior citizens in projects designed to beautify and improve roadways, communities and public recreational facilities. "This funding has served a dual purpose in my district," McKay said. "It has given the senior citizens involved a tangible and enjoyable vent for their energies, and it has significantly improved the target project areas in which they have worked." Among other projects assumed by the Green Thumb workers were the planting of seedlings along Utah roadways, the clearing of brush to improve scenic beauty, garden development, and the construction of stone facings. |
