There are many ways individuals and groups can demonstrate pride in their communities, but sometimes the opportunities to do just that aren’t quite so clear as a spring community cleanup is.
This Saturday, the Great American Cleanup Oklahoma hits the streets, yards, alleys and parks as Guymonites have the chance to not only get a jump on making Guymon look like a great place to call home, but also the rare chance to drop off a lot of stuff that might be outside of the budget to haul off most of the year.
