Mayor Janice S. Mironov and the East Windsor Clean Communities Committee celebrated the 2019 Adopt-a-Spot program with a recent wrap-up event.  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 three times a month from April 1 through November 30.  
The 2019 Adopt-A-Spot program participants included Beth El Synagogue, Boy Scout Troop 59, Boy Scout Troop 5700, Brownie Troop 70365, Cub Scout Pack 53, Girl Scout Troop 71436, Girl Scout Troop 70106, Girl Scout Troop 71905, Girl Scout Troop 71331, Girl Scout Troop 72350, Girl Scout Troop 72702, East Side Ballerz Basketball Team, East Windsor Police Athletic League, East Windsor Regional School District Hightstown High School Ecology Club, East Windsor Volleyballers, St. David’s Episcopal Church, and Wells Fargo Bank. 

Mayor Mironov stated, “The Adopt-A-Spot program is a tremendous success thanks to the wonderful participants who volunteer to land a hand to help their community. We are proud of the participants’ efforts to keep East Windsor litter-free.  Adopt-A-Spot is a great program in not only ensuring public areas of our community are well-maintained, but also has been a wonderful educational tool for teaching our young people social responsibility and community  pride.”  Mayor Mironov continued, “The Adopt-A-Spot program involves hundreds of young people and, each year, continues to be a success, instilling an awareness of the value and satisfaction of giving back to the community to our next generation of residents, while also simultaneously helping to support the activities and service of these worthwhile youth groups.”
