EVANSVILLE, IN – Clean Evansville volunteers will target areas around one of the city’s busiest traffic
interchanges during the monthly litter pick-up on Saturday, Dec. 1, from 9 to 11 a.m. The “Clean
Teams†will gather at locations near the Lloyd Expressway and U.S. 41 to collect litter along service roads
and through some neighborhoods south and west of the interchange.
Team 1 will be led by Mayor Lloyd Winnecke and David Herrenbruck from Fifth Third Bank. Team 1 will
start at the intersection of East Franklin and Canal streets. Team 2 will be led by First Lady Carol
McClintock and Ann Ennis from Ruth’s House. Team 2 will start at the intersection of South Kerth
Avenue and Sycamore Street. Team 3 will be led by Clean Evansville committee chair Timothy Weir from
Accuride. Team 3 will also start at the intersection of East Franklin and Canal streets.
The teams will move from the interchange west toward Martin Luther King, Jr., Blvd. They will meet at
the parking lot behind the Civic Center adjacent to the CK Newsome Community Center to deposit trash
collected during the clean-up. Clean Evansville partner Allied Waste will haul the trash to the landfill.
Keep Evansville Beautiful coordinates volunteers for the monthly clean-ups. Anyone interested in joining
or forming a team should contact Mike McGarrah at 425-4461.
Is downtown and the south,eastside the only part of town they are gonna clean ?
Actually, we have cleaned the area around Garvin’s Park earlier this year. I suggest that if you have an area that you feel should be focused on, contact the Mayor or Keep Evansville Beautiful. I don’t work for KEB, just my family participates every month.
