Determined groups set out to help make their community a better place today.
Fall Fix-up gave the opportunity to complete some much needed projects before cooler weather sets in.
At the Ashby House, volunteers painted, cleaned up flowerbeds, and removed debris and trash from properties.
In North Town, a home received new siding, the inside got a fresh coat of paint, and yard work was completed.
Volunteers put medallions on storm drains about trash in the water ways.
Cleaning and landscaping at 5-Corners was completed. Siding was scraped and painted, along with yard work for homes on N. Ninth.
Volunteers picked up trash near the Smoky Hill River next to YMCA.
Mulch was added to the garden at Salina Food Bank, while yard work and landscaping also happened.
At the Salina Rescue Mission volunteers painted, did yard maintenance, and moved furniture.
Work at The Temple included painting rooms and cleaning the theater.
What is easily the most popular event of Fall Fix-up, the City of Salina held a free landfill day. This gave residents a chance to clean out their yards.
Finally, free yard mulch was available in the Municipal Golf Course parking lot.
If you missed any of this today, Spring Spruce Up will occur next year, usually in April.
