Hinkson Clean Sweep is a big success!




Many thanks to the hundreds of volunteers who came out this morning to participate in the 6th annual Hinkson Clean Sweep! The rainy weather earlier in the week reduced the number of available cleanup sites, but the bright, sunny day brought out the volunteers! Many organizations worked together to make the event a success. Read more at: http://www.gocolumbiamo.com/Volunteer/HinksonCleanSweep2009.php.

Volunteers plant the 763 roundabout






If you travel through the north end of Columbia, take a minute to check out the roundabout located at 763/VV/Prathersville Road. A group of 24 volunteers shared Saturday morning to plant the bed with a variety of trees, shrubs and perennials. This bed will be adopted by the Cosmo Clubs of Columbia and many of their members came out to plant, along with a group of MU student athletes and a few other dedicated volunteers!
This was the larges Adopt A Spot project we have under taken and think it will be enjoyed by the thousands of people who travel through this intersection every day!
