| WHEREAS, Mt. Vernon's annual City-Wide Cleanup day started |
| 9 |
| in 1997; the citizens of Mt. Vernon wanted to make their |
| 10 |
| community a safer and cleaner place to live; as each year |
| 11 |
| passes, more and more people volunteer to help and there is a |

| smaller amount of trash to be picked up; as a result of this |
| 13 |
| ongoing community effort, children learn the importance of |

| keeping their community clean and adults know that the children |
| 15 |
| have a cleaner place to live and play; and

| WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives |
| 17 |
| particularly wish to recognize the efforts of Mr. Nathan L. |
| 18 |
| Pigg, who has organized the annual event; therefore, be it
|

| 22 |
| Home Town Award and we congratulate Mr. Nathan L. Pigg and the |
