to present the November
Future StrateQies of Beautification Committee
Mrs. Ver Way stated she had a few ideas down. Her ~irst idea was
designating a weel~ in the spring and the fall for the citizens of
Edgewater to chip in and help clean up. Some of her other ideas
were to have a banner made up and to contact the schools so the
kids could have some kind of essay contest of why it is important
to care about the community. Mr. Seifert stated there could be
prizes too. He also stated maybe some businesses would donate
the prizes for the top essays in each grade. Mrs. Ver Way
stated that maybe the local radio stations could advertise or the
newspapers could advertise. Mr. Loomis stated that he could go
to a Council meeting and present some of the ideas they have.
Mr. Seifert stated that they could be invited to one of the
Beautification Committee meetings and then a plan could be
devised to submit. Mr. Loomis stated he would like to be in the
Christmas parade and he could put a CARE slogan on his truck.
The Committee discussed maybe making CARE week the same time that
Public Works goes around and does their big clean up. Mr.
Seifert stated a message could be put on the back of water
bills.
