What a perfect day for a cleanup!  We had a warm, sunny day and everyone was in a good mood!  There were many volunteers from the University and around town.  People were sent all over town, including Giant City Road and Route 13.  After all of their hard work, volunteers received a free t-shirt and some yummy lunch.  A big thanks to Kris Schachel, Executive Director of Keep Carbondale Beautiful for making this such a big success!

 

This was a big day for BSISA members.  We were sent to Route 13 in front of the mall, and we managed to collect about 150 pounds of litter and recyclable materials.  Some of the members sported their new tie-dyed t-shirts from Schwartzkopf Printing, and they looked really great. 

 

After the big cleanup and some hotdogs for lunch, BSISA members were off to plant flowers with Girl Scouts on Marion Square.  The girls who participated were from Marion and Johnson City.  Everyone did a great job and really made the square come alive with the beautiful flowers!  Thanks to AcuGrow in Marion for the flower donations.  We really appreciated it!
