Barrineau Park Cleans Up
April 25, 2016
A community clean up event was held over the weekend in Barrineau Park in honor of Earth day.
The annual event is co-sponsored by the Honeysuckle Garden Club and the Barrineau Park Historical Society with the assistance of Clean and Green of Escambia County.
Each of 26 volunteers selected an area to clean, was given gloves, a vest to wear, trash bags and bottled water, and then sent out to pick up the litter. All the trash was piled up under an oak tree at the community center, to be picked up by Clean and Green. The volunteers were then served a free lunch, funded by Kenneth Gibbs and prepared by Honeysuckle Garden Club.
“Because of the efforts of these volunteers, Barrineau Park is a cleaner place to be enjoyed by all,” organizers said.
