Neighborhood Pride Initiative
Five projects have been identified by the Neighborhood Pride Committee to clean up during the Spring of 2009. They include two vacant lots on Pittston Avenue in South Scranton and three vacant lots in Carbondale, one of which will be turned into a community garden.


Clean up will begin April 4. To join in and help, please meet at 8:00 a.m. at the Hill Neighborhood Association, 419 Prescott Avenue.

Others Ways To Help:
· All Neighborhood Pride activities are posted on WNEP.com’s Power To Save Program page. Check out the calendar of events to participate in “pride” projects throughout the region.

· Contact Neighborhood Association President Mary Alice Burke to reach out to other areas in Lackawanna County.

Update:
The Committee is seeking a company or group to “adopt” the West Scranton Bridge Project which was cleaned up and painted through a major Neighborhood Pride collaboration last Spring. Adoption would entail keeping the area clean of litter and trimmed of overgrowth.
