More than 60 people participated in the Kent Downtown Partnership Clean-Up Day of downtown.
The participating groups last Saturday included Maggie’s, AAA Pest Control, Around the Clock, Project Uth, Kent AM Kiwanis group, All Pro Maintenance, Willow’s Place (with about nine homeless men who helped), Sysco, Kent-Meridian Key Club, Curran Law Firm, Greater Kent Historical Society, Handman Connection and Cal’s Classic American.
Besides picking up trash, several volunteers also painted benches and picnic tables.
Mike Miller of Valley Bank will lead a small crew on Friday, May 25 to hang 60 large flower baskets throughout downtown.
