Thank You!!!
On Behalf of Governor Rendell, Secretary Biehler of PennDOT, Secretary DiBerardinis of DCNR, the members of Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful, and the many volunteers who worked so hard to make the Great Pennsylvania Cleanup such a resounding success…
Thank You From All Of Us!!!
When we first challenged the people of Pennsylvania to organize and conduct community cleanups as part of the first annual Great Pennsylvania Cleanup, we knew you would respond. But we weren't prepared for the overwhelming show of support from all corners of the state.
Local government leaders, business and trade organizations, community groups and ordinary citizens joined forces to organize and conduct cleanups in community parks, along roads and streams and in vacant lots.
Over 500 groups registered on this website, and PennDOT reports that several thousand Adopt-A-Highway groups turned out to clean miles of state highways.
If you haven't done so already, please take a minute to report the results of your cleanup!!!
Be sure to visit the Great Pennsylvania Cleanup "Scrapbook" at DEP's Litter Page for the latest cleanup totals and pictures from cleanups around the state.
And mark your calendars now for our next Great Pennsylvania Cleanup on Saturday, April 23rd, 2005.
Thank you for making a difference in your community. I look forward to being part of an even bigger cleanup next year.
"Let's Pick it Up PA" EVERY DAY!!!

Kathleen A. McGinty Secretary, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection
