Mayor Janice S. Mironov, Council Members and the East Windsor Clean Communities Committee celebrated the 2012 Adopt-a-Spot program with a wrap-up event on January 24. Under the program, participating groups “adopt” one of the public properties identified by the Committee and keep it clean during the year. A placard is erected on the site indicating that it has been “Adopted by” with the name of the group. The groups are expected to perform clean up 3 times a month from April 1 through November 1.

We congratulate and thank the 2012 participating groups for their good service to the community.”
