Waukon Clean-Up Day successful

More than three dozen volunteers showed up and pitched in at the Saturday, May 15 Waukon Clean-Up Day organized by Dr. Steve and Stefanie Perkins. The event had been originally scheduled for Saturday, May 8, but cold, wet weather forced postponement of the event until this past Saturday, which featured much better weather. Volunteers first organized in front of the Allamakee County Courthouse (picutred at right) and then dispersed to work at such tasks as painting shelters at the Allamakee County Fairgrounds and cleaning up weeds and garbage in downtown Waukon and along roadways entering the town.
