Frankfort Announces Earth Day Celebration

FRANKFORT, IL — The Village of Frankfort will mark Saturday, April 27, as its annual Earth Day/Arbor Day celebration. The village said this community-wide “clean up” day, started in 1995, continues to be one of the most popular events in the village. Volunteers also clean and plant flowers during the event.

“We are very pleased with the number of volunteers who continue to participate every year during
our Earth Day clean up event. Frankfort continues to have a strong sense of volunteerism, and it
is evident with the increased participation each year for this event. I invite all our residents and
civic groups to join us on April 27”, Mayor Jim Holland said in a release.

The Earth Day/Arbor Day Celebration begins at 8:30 a.m. at the Utilities/Public Works Facility at
524 Center Road and concludes with a luncheon for all volunteers at 11:30 a.m. at the same
location, the village said.

Large groups are encouraged to contact Sue Lynchey at the Village Administration Office, prior to
the event for appropriate planning.
