PANA
CITY WIDE SPRING CLEAN-UP
The Annual Pana Spring Clean-up is scheduled for Saturday
May 10, 2008.
Residents, property owners, and businesses are encouraged
to “Tidy-Up” after the long Winter as well as catch up with
those fast growing Spring weeds.
The City of Pana will provide dumpsters to City residents
only, on clean-up day.
The dumpsters will be located at the Pana City Garage on
the corner of Elm and Almond Streets.
They will be available on a first come first serve basis
as collection will begin at 7:00 a.m. and end at noon or when
the container limit is met.
No yard waste, no tires, no household garbage will be
taken.
The clean up effort goes beyond individuals and
business as Clubs and Organizations are asked to join the
effort. Various
areas in and around Pana can be selected for group clean up
efforts. A
group is being sought to coordinate the Downtown Pana Clean up,
slated for the evenings of Monday May 12, 2008 and Tuesday May
13, 2008. Contact
the Pana Chamber Office at 562-4240 for a list of other areas
available. It
is also suggested that residents check with neighbors that might
need some help in their own clean up effort.
With three major highways going through Pana taking
traffic to Lake Shelbyville, the Lincoln Sites in Springfield,
the new Lincoln Library, Amish Country, the Vandalia-Lake
Carlyle Area, the wide use of Kitchell Park and various other
Spring visitors it is a benefit to present Pana as a clean
Community.
Clean makes a statement that also says “Welcome, stay a
while, an hour, a day, week or a lifetime”
A clean, attractive community is not only a more pleasant
place to live, but the value of the good impression it makes on
prospective employers, professionals, and others who visit the
Pana Area should never be underestimated.
Economic surveys state that a clean community does
attract more business and industry.
For more information call the Pana Office of Development
at 562-3109. Do
your part to “Keep Pana Beautiful”.
