To the editor:

Spring has sprung, and it’s not just crocuses that are springing up from under the snow! The amount of trash that has surfaced seems worse than ever this year as masks litter every street.

It’s time for us to come together again to make our town the shining example it is, a community that works together for the common good.

Please consider volunteering on Saturday, May 1 (rain date May 8). We should always clean up our own neighborhood, but if you are a business owner or have a group willing to work to clean up a particular area, let us know at lpvillagecleanup@gmail.com or on our Facebook page, Lake Placid Annual Clean Up Day.

We will be holding this event virtually and socially distanced, with people sharing their haul on social media. We will have “special” garbage bags, instructions, latex gloves to pick up. Please let us know if you plan to participate.

More info to follow, but look out for a treasure hunt and prizes!

Thanks so much,

Andrea Grout
