QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass – grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...

After being pushed back a week due to the weather, volunteers were able to gather in the parking lot of the Greenwood City Center for the 6th Annual Clean-Up Day sponsored by Restore Old Town Greenwood (ROTG). “I’m really excited to see the people that came out,” said Cindy Jo Minett, the Everetts’ daughter and board member for ROTG. “We are starting on the facades. It helps people to take pride in their community, for them to not just clean up for one day but want to keep the momentum going.
