Years ago, we used to have a beautification committee.  I know that if we were to get that going the director of public works, Mr. Addison, has many ideas and would work with us to get our town looking wonderful.
Is there any interest in forming such a committee and would anyone be willing to be  part of it.  I will get things started if there is any interest.  (I will not be the Lone Ranger, but I will work with a core group)
Who will sign up?  Just email me and I will set it up.  I will  report back to towntalk with the number of volunteers.

I've thought of signs we could post around, but have often wondered if we could partner with the elementary school to try to teach the kids that littering is not good community behaviour.  A lot of the litter I see seems to come from kids' snacks.  And the beer bottles, too, but couldn't we start when they are young?
