Pick up trash, make a difference in Mt. Washington By Forrest Sellers fsellers@communitypress.com

MT. WASHINGTON – The Mt. Washington Service League is ready to make a difference with its final community cleanup of the year. As part of Make a Difference Day the Service League will sponsor a cleanup from 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, Oct. 22. Volunteers should meet at the New York New York Fresh Deli, 2210 Beechmont Ave. “We’re just trying to keep our neighborhoods clean and engage the community in volunteerism,” said Ryan Doan, head of the Service League and a board

member on the Mt. Washington Community Council. Although this is the Service League’s sixth event and second community clean up, it’s the first time an event has been centered around Make a Difference Day. Doan said previous gatherings have attracted about 50 participants. He is hoping double that number will attend the upcoming event. Gloves, trash bags, Tshirts bottled water and other items left over from the Great American Cleanup last spring will be available. The cleanup will focus on the business district, Stan-

bery Park and Mt. Washington Cemetery. “I really think people can see the difference in the streets,” said Doan. “People like the idea of working together on common projects for the good of everyone.” Although no other fall events are planned by the Service League, Doan said the organization will collect canned good donations at the beginning of the Mt. Washington Community Council meetings in October. The canned goods will be donated to a local pantry. The Mt. Washington Community Council meets 7

p.m. the third Wednesday of the month at the Mt. Washington Recreation Center. For information, call Doan at 255-0955. For more about your community, visit www. cincinnati.com/mountwashington.
