Keep Big Spring Beautiful gets “Gold Star” Recognition
Keep Big Spring Beautiful once again received “Gold Star” recognition from Keep Texas Beautiful. The status is an important honor for our local organization because it indicates that we are active in many ways in promoting, educating and DOING beautification in the community. Keep Big Spring Beautiful regularly conducts education and training, submits activity reports and organizes community clean-ups like “Love Our Lake” and the “Trash Off”. This and more, plus payment of dues to Keep Texas Beautiful are what make Keep Big Spring Beautiful eligible for the special “Gold Star” recognition. Congratulations to the K.B.S.B. organization, and all the volunteers who continue to help KEEP Big Spring Beautiful!
