Dear Friends:
I am delighted to announce that the Gainesville Cycling Club has been
honored with the Gold Award by Keep Alachua County Beautiful for the
Outstanding Achievement of our Adopt-A-Road program. At the KACB
banquet last night Adopt-A-Road Director Diann Dimitri was presented
with a handsome basalt obelisk commemorating this recognition.
Diann is to be commended for her devoted leadership of this program
which so far has spanned 12 years. The citation for the Award states
"Since 1994 members of the Gainesville Cycling Club have demonstrated
their appreciation of Alachua County and its natural beauty by striving
to keep one section of a lovely rural highway free of litter. Over the
years many individual club members have contributed hundreds of hours to
this effort, and have collected more than 22,400 pounds of unsightly
rubbish from the shoulders of this Old Florida Heritage Highway. One
corner of Alachua County has been beautified over many years through
their selfless labor."
Congratulations to Diann, and congratulations to every member of GCC who
have taken part in this major effort. All the Club should be proud that
our Community appreciates us.
Cheers,
George
