Hi All;
It is Spring cleaning/Adopt a highway time for the Kane County Democrats. We will be doing our part to keep Kane county beautiful and litter free on Saturday April 27 at 9:00am.
Please meet me at 1707 Patricia Lane in St Charles. Doughnuts and coffee will await you as we prepare to clean our portion of Kirk Rd,
In an hour and a half we will have picked up the 1/1/2 miles of road we are responsible for. We separate into groups so each person’s walk is smaller portion of the task. Many hands make light work.
Please respond so I can prepare properly.
