October Is PRIDE Cleanup Month In Pike County

.— The month of October is PRIDE cleanup month in Pike County, and the Pike County Fiscal Court urges all communities to participate in cleaning up the county during this month.

“Let’s show the world that Pike County citizens are proud of where they live because it is the most beautiful place on Earth,” said Pike County Judge Executive Wayne T. Rutherford.

To find out whether your community has an active PRIDE cleanup group or to find out how to start one in your area, please contact your local magistrate’s office or Pike County PRIDE Director Jimmy Dale Sanders in the Pike County Solid Waste Office at (606) 432-6245.

“When communities get involved in cleanups, it improves the looks of the entire county. Trash scattered along our highways and ditch lines gives our county a bad image. So let’s all get together and put a stop to this eyesore,” Sanders said.

“The Pike County Solid Waste Department works very hard to clean up the county, but we couldn’t begin to put a dent in the task without the help of PRIDE volunteers,” said Pike County Solid Waste Deputy Commissioner Mike Lyons.

Pike County Pride, the Pike County Solid Waste Department and the Pike County Fiscal Court are doing all they can to make Pike County even more beautiful, but they need the help of all Pike County citizens. Everyone is urged to take time during October to improve the looks of their community. Imagine the impact it will have if everyone does their part.
