The City of Covington has entered the 54th annual Louisiana Garden Club Federation’s Cleanest City Contest. The Cleanest City Contest is designed to encourage communities to work together with the common goal of cleaning their environment while instilling pride in their city. The City entered the contest in conjunction with the Covington Garden Club and Keep Covington Beautiful. Covington placed second last year in the Cleanest City Contest, which is divided into 10 categories according to population.
The judging is usually held in early spring, around late March or early April. The City will continue to keep citizens updated on contest information and ways to prepare.
“Mayor Mike Cooper would like to encourage our Covington community to join efforts in preparation of the contest and watch Covington shine,” says Pam Keller, Executive Assistant to Mayor Mike Cooper/Special Projects Director.
Citizens can contribute to the effort by organizing neighborhood cleanup groups to “Keep Covington Beautiful”.
