Leaving LaGrange Better Than We Found It, city litter pickup
The public is invited to join the City of LaGrange for its monthly litter clean-up event Saturday, December 7th, 8:00-10:00 a.m. The group will meet on the first segment of The Thread behind St. Mark's Episcopal Church, 207 North Greenwood Street. We are proud to partner with St. Mark's Episcopal Church for this event. City Manager Meg Kelsey wanted to send a message to the community that the City of LaGrange is serious about cleaning up litter and rolled out the city’s campaign, “Leaving LaGrange Better Than We Found It.” The City of LaGrange closed non-essential business April 20, 2018 and hundreds of employees picked up trash throughout the community.
