“[Cub Cadet’s] been here a couple of different years and it’s always a big day,” Dodson said. “They bring some coupons down on mowers so definitely be a great day to buy a new mower if you need one for the spring.”

Saturday April 22, 2017 is Earth Day and American Pride is hosting Zanesville Pride Community Clean-up Day, where anyone can come and join American pride in cleaning up designated on-ramps and off-ramps.

“We had an excellent turn out last year and loaded a big dumpster full of trash and it’s amazing what a small group of people can do in a short amount of time,” Dodson said. “So it’s just a great event and a way to clean up the town.”

The Zanesville Clean-up will be from 10:00 A.M. until 12:00 P.M. with a cookout following. They’ll have safety vest’s, trash bags, and gloves provided, but encourage others to bring some of their own supplies.

Dodson said he got a lot of excellent feedback on last year’s clean-up day and it really made a difference when driving on off-ramps and on-ramps and not having to see trash lying around.

“Good people need to be good citizens, and this is our town we take pride in it,” said Dodson.
