Operation
Neighborhood
Clean-Up set
for Nov. 2
With
less than one day before the 5th Annual Operation Neighborhood
Clean-Up is held on Friday, Nov. 2, over 30 households located throughout the
City of Rolla have been selected by the Rolla Police Department and Rolla Area
Ministerial Alliance to receive assistance.
And
while many volunteers from past clean-ups have already signed up to help out
with this year’s clean-up, there is always a need for more individuals and
groups to help provide the kind of teamwork that is required of this
collaborative effort.
If
you are interested in volunteering, you are encouraged to contact Officer Vince
Giacolone, VIPS Director at the Rolla Police Department (308-1213), or attend
the welcome gathering the morning of the clean-up on Nov. 2 at 6:30 a.m. at the Greentree Christian
Church Youth Center (located at 801 East 10th Street). A
complimentary hot breakfast will be provided, and the clean-up will take place
from 7 a.m. to 12-noon.
Operation
Neighborhood Clean-up is an opportunity for residents to partner with the Rolla
Area Ministerial Alliance, community churches, and the Rolla Police Department
to enhance a sense of community, well being, pride and property values among
the neighborhoods where the clean-up is conducted. The clean-up effort involves
limited tree trimming, hedge trimming, and the removal of brush piles, leaves,
household items and trash.
Luncheon to honor
Korean War Veterans
set for Nov. 3
The
public is invited to attend a luncheon and silent auction to honor Korean War
Veterans on Saturday, Nov. 3 at 12-noon at Greentree Christian Church (located

potato salad, and dessert, are $20 per person. The acoustic classic rock band, Trilogy, will also be performing, and a

Drive near Hwy. 72.
