Jaycees will conduct week. Jaycees to Sponsor Anfi- Litter Week Pleasant Grove Jaycees are sponsoring an anti-litter week, March 21 through March 27, according to a proclamation signed by the Mayor and City Council Monday night at City Council meeting. The Proclamation gave the Jaycees permission to sponsor this community service, and also al-so gave them permission to provide trash containers in the Pleasant Grove area to help during this week and throughout through-out the year. The Jaycees were also designated desig-nated Monday evening as the civic organization to effect the annual spring cleanup of Pleas- ant Grove. They are formulating formulat-ing plans to work with the local army reserve unit, who are also, al-so, as a community service picking up unwanted trash in Pleasant Grove during their drills on April 3 and 4. They will provide trucks and men to haul garbage and other trash to the garbage grounds. Citizens wanting to avail themselves of this service, can contact any Jaycee or call the local reserve unit directly, from 11 to 12 each day. Plans call also for use of all Scout and Explorer Troops in the area to help in the cleanup, clean-up, and also in the anti-litter campaign. They will be utilized for both educational and actual cleanup operations. Poster contests in the local elementary schools, sponsored by the Jaycees, will make certain cer-tain that all students in the area know about "anti-litter" and that by carrying their posters into their homes their parents will also known about the efforts ef-forts being made in keeping our city clean. "Anti-Litter Week" should last all year, the Jaycees say, and the purpose of proclaiming such a week, March 21 to 27, is merely to point out the importance im-portance and need for this effort ef-fort by our citizens. |
