Kiwanis Cleans Up Highway 12

Several Members of the Kiwanis Whitewater Breakfast Club spent Saturday morning on June 8, helping to keep the highway clean via the Adopt-A-Highway program.  A team of five picked up  10 bags of garbage and some large car parts on Highway 12 in La Grange.

“Serving our community is a primary purpose of our club.  Cleaning up the highway is one of many contributions that our members make,” said Lynn Binnie, coordinator of the Kiwanis Adopt-A-Highway program. 

Kiwanis is a global organization of volunteers dedicated to changing the world one child and one community at a time.
