REINTRODUCING:

ADOPT A SPOT

KCB is reintroducing the Adopt-A-Spot program with help from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency!

Adopt-A-Spot encourages you to improve your neighborhood by cleaning littered curbs, sidewalks, and vacant lots; cutting grass and high weeds; planting flowers; removing signs from utility poles; reporting graffiti; and other activities.

Take part in this exciting and innovative program by "adopting" a portion of your neighborhood. From business districts to your own block, beautification and maintenance of your own "spot" will benefit your community in more ways than one! Adopt-A-Spot today!
