(Dawson County, GA) Keep Dawson County Beautiful and the Dawson County Marshal’s office encourage everyone to participate in this year’s second collaborative district-wide community clean up event Saturday, November 21, 2009. Dawson County’s fall community clean up event takes place in District Two and will begin at 8:30 am at the courthouse parking lot on Shoal Creek Road. Litter pick-up routes and supplies will be distributed to volunteer groups. Breakfast sandwiches and coffee will be provided for volunteers courtesy of Bojangle’s of Dawsonville. In an effort to promote the general cleaning and beautification of Dawson County, KDCB and the Dawson County Marshal’s office have partnered to hold at least two district-wide community clean ups each year. “We began with District One in the spring of 2009 and look forward to working in District Two in November,” said KDCB Executive Director Cathy Brooks. “Next year we will continue with Districts Three and Four,” she said. The aim of this cooperation is to protect the quality of our environment as well as to enhance the natural beauty of Dawson County. “During our spring event volunteers collected 20 bags of litter and 18 tires in just three hours on clean up day,” said Sergeant Robbie Irvin of the Marshal’s Office. “That was a good effort considering the inclement weather that day. We hope our next clean up will bring us better weather and give us the opportunity to increase our achievements,” Irvin said. On April 16, 2009 the Dawson County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to proclaim Dawson County Community Clean Up days to promote environmental consciousness including litter prevention and recycling. To participate in the District Two community clean-up, individuals and groups may register by calling Cathy Brooks at 706-344-3501 x 255 or email cbrooks@dawsoncounty.org.
