ESSNA teams with Caesar's Foundation for neighborhood benches.

Greg Roberts, President of the East Spring Street Neighborhood Association, writes to let us know about the latest success in neighborhood improvement.

If you get a chance today or tomorrow, drive along Elm, Market and Spring Streets to take a look at the new benches being installed.


The East Spring Neighborhood Association applied for a grant from the Caesars Foundation of Floyd County and received the funds as a part of our neighborhood revitalization and beautification project. The benches are being installed by the street department. Tell me what you think!

Six of the benches were installed today near these locations on Spring Street: Calumet Club, Muir Manor, Pyke-Calloway Funeral Home, the neighborhood health center, the Masonic Lodge and the St. Mary's playground -- and there's more to come.

The benches are a great addition to the neighborhood. Not only are they practical but they send a message that someone cares about the neighborhood.

Many thanks to Greg and the other members of the East Spring Neighborhood Association who continue to work for positive change even though it is a slow, uphill climb.
