The first- and second-place teams for the Mt. Vernon City Wide Cleanup received trophies Friday which were earned last Saturday. The high school team was organized by the Future Business Leaders of America and the students in Cheri Boyd’s marketing class. Some of those present for the award were Mayor Mary Jane Chesley; FLBA sponsors Julie Hays and Cheri Boyd; students Amanda Rohr, Ryan Wellmaker, Katie Hicks, Ansley Murphy, David Clifton, Brooke Payne and Manesha Long; City Manager Ron Neibert; and city inspector Derrick Quitsch. All the students who were in school Friday and participated in City Wide Cleanup were present to receive the 7-foot-tall first-place trophy for most volunteers and the first-place trophy for the most bags of trash collected.
