<div>Hello,</div>
<div>Would it be possible to run a small ad in the next Riverdale Park newsletter that says something like "Let's All Keep Riverdale Beautiful. Can the litter" or some positive message. With a photo or sketch. Translated in several languages.</div>

<div>I wonder if we could coordinate so that those of us who aren't available on Saturday morning (me) could still contribute. One of the things I love about Dotsie, Emily & Del is that they pick up the garbage as part of their walks through town. If we all did this, think how clean the town would be!</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Also, maybe we could help the town maintain their gardens as well. A group dedicated to the beautification of our town - whatever that might involve.... </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Love the constructive ideas! Keep them coming!</div>

<div><span>As a new resident and someone who has helped setup trash pickup in my previous neighborhood. I would like to suggest that we start a bi-weekly or monthly community trash pickup. I can be responsible for sending out the reminders and coordinate with Town personnel. What this would require is commitment from each and every resident to curve out two hours of their Saturday morning to walk with other neighbors and pick up trash.</span></div>
<div><span></span> </div>
<div><span>If the Town can provide litter pickers and trash bags, it doesn't cost us any monetary value but it gives us pride to say that our Town is clean and it deters criminals and others. </span><span>This is a great way for residents to build and create a strong community. I personally don't know many in town, but would love to be able to walk down the street and know more residents.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>With the knowledge that the Town is divided by major roads, we can focus on different sections at a time, maybe starting with the afore mentioned bridge with tents.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>If anyone is interested, you can email me directly or respond to this thread. Can someone direct me to whom I need to get in contact with to obtain litter pickers and trash bags?</div>
