Dozens of volunteers spent part of their Saturday picking up garbage in the Woodford County cities of Versailles and Midway. Main Street Clean Sweep is an annual beautification project organized by the nonprofit Bluegrass Greensource. 16 other clean sweeps took place in central Kentucky from April 6th through Monday. Paulette Akers is a board member who picked up litter in downtown Versailles.
“I really think it's important that if you're living in a community and you see trash, that you pick it up when you see it and don't let it collect. And I think we've really seen that a lot of the areas that people use, we are seeing less trash that is there year after year.”
