Seymour Congregational Church to hold 25th annual Polish Dinner



Derby City Hall, Home Depot to hold city-wide cleanup day


From Mayor Richard Dziekan's Facebook page:
"From Home Depot, we will disperse to various pre-determined areas throughout the city that could use some TLC. Gloves, litter pickers, and garbage bags will be provided.

"Even if you can’t make it to Home Depot at 10 am, I’m asking that all residents take the opportunity to clean up our little city. If it means picking up litter out in front of your house or on your street, every little bit helps. We should all take pride in the cleanliness of Derby everyday, but on November 1, we will be out in full force doing this citywide clean-up. I hope to see some before-and-after pics from those who participate. 
Email Pam in my office if you have any questions. pgagliardi@derbyct.gov."
