COWTOWN CLEANUP WRAP-UP AND AWARDS
This year’s Arlington Heights Cowtown Cleanup included
(left to right) Trey Mesman, Steve Waas, Linda Waas and Chris Cisneros.
Even though the Cowtown Cleanup event is an early Saturday morning call, Arlington Heights has always participated in the annual citywide trash pickup undertaking, now in its 41st year. This year 3,800 volunteers registered to clean up the city, and 1,854 tires were retrieved from illegal dumping sites.
AHNA’s Cowtown Cleanup Captain Shanna Cisneros won an
honorable mention in the Trashion Show at the Earth Celebration
that followed the trash event. Shanna was recognized for using the most varied materials.
She used feed sacks, paper bags, bottle caps, aluminum cans,
twist ties and wire, duct and clear tape, sponge paint brushes and
magazine cutouts for her Cowtown Clara character. Way to go, Shanna!
