Clinton Joins Keep America Beautiful

This year, the City of Clinton is proud to announce that it is joining hundreds of other communities in the struggle for community improvement by becoming a Keep America Beautiful affiliate. By undertaking this venture, we hope to encourage the citizens of Clinton to join with us in efforts to clean up and prevent litter, to be more responsible in solid waste management and disposal, and to improve the aesthetic virtue of our city with community greening and beautification projects. Our official affiliate name will be "Keep Clinton Beautiful".
