Clean Up Coshocton Day


Let's start with Amy's event as we discuss the "results" of the Hasseman's Big Weekend. Clean Up Coshocton day can be deemed nothing other than a HUGE success!



There were an estimated 140 volunteers show up to help by pitching in to clean up areas of Coshocton. There were large groups from The Girl Scouts, Key Club, Kiwanis, Rotary, The City of Coshocton, Hopewell, The Opportunity School, and honestly many more that I can't remember.





Amy had mapped our areas of the city where the groups were sent, and the combined power of many made a big difference in the entrances and public areas to our town. As one person told me, "On every street you turned you saw groups with Orange T-shirts and Orange Trash Bags!"





In addition to the great impact they made to the appearance in town, this event is a fantastic example of how each of us can make a difference in our community. As a citizen of Coshocton County who could not make it to this event, I want to say THANK YOU! to each of the folks who helped.



And of course I want to say how proud I am of Amy for helping to orchestrate this. She is a true dynamo!
