Nolensville: Add a new hue to red, white and blue of July 4
The Tennessean, May 21, 2008
Y'all are the best.
Linda Rowland called to let me know that town response to going green and making the town pretty has been great. A few people stepped up to volunteer to help her beautify Nolensville by planting flowers from Tant's Plants in the stone containers around town. "The volunteers helped make it easy work," she says of the job that was finished in a few hours over two days.
The recycling bags at our ballparks are being used well. Rowland says she had three huge bags of plastic bottles from one weekend at the soccer park.
Next goal: a litter-free Fourth of July event. Love it.
Speaking of, remember last year's inaugural Fourth of July celebration here? The Town Events Committee is working on this year's version and is enlisting volunteers. The celebration begins at 5 p.m. at Nolensville Park and closes with fireworks at dark. Volunteers are needed for one-hour shifts to help coordinate parking, pick up trash, assist with kids games and inflatables and do other miscellaneous duties. Organizations may trade volunteer hours for sponsorship. Several local businesses have stepped up to be sponsors. More are always needed. Forms are available at Town Hall and the town Web site, http://www.nolensvilletn.gov/.
