“This property always looks clean, neat, litter-free and is filled with beautiful flower beds, shrubs and trees,” according to KCCB Project Chairman Nave. We are pleased to recognize this hard working family and their staff for outstanding beautification contributions in our county.” Earl Robinson founded his family business in 1984 and it has enlarged every year since.

The Bethel Township business was the second Clark County business to be honored by KCCB. The Heart of Country Gift Shoppe, 1600 East Leffel Lane, in Springfield Township was selected for the KCCB’s initial beautification award in 2014, Chairman Nave reported. Other Clark County business locations will be honored and township residents are urged to send in nominations for both business locations and outstanding homes for 2016.

Nominations for the KCCB awards can be mailed to Marianne L. Nave, Project Chr., Keep Clark County Beautiful, 1602 West Main Street, Springfield, OH 45504. Other Beautification Sub-Committee members are James Campbell, Paul Parlato, Karen Duncan, Sky Schelle, Mindy Rigel, Linda Mitchell, Cheryl Dover, Susan Bayless and Cheryl Locke.

Keep Clark County Beautiful was organized in 2007 by the Clark County Solid Waste District and interested community leaders. KCCB was officially certified as an affiliate of Keep America Beautiful, Inc. on January 30, 2008 and has met regularly since then, carrying out many varied programs in the county, following KAB’s mission to engage individuals to take greater responsibilities for improving their community environments.

This KCCB project recognizes business and home beautification efforts in Clark County by townships. It was started because there was no process to recognize homeowners in the rural areas who are contributing to beautification efforts in the county. Other KCCB Projects include the Great American Cleanup, Waterway Cleanups, Adopt-a-Road and Adopt-a-Spot projects, Anti-litter and Graffiti removal efforts and much more.
