Community clean-up, Stuff the Truck for Texas this weekend
After last week’s cold-related cabin fever, Saturday will offer a couple of opportunities to get out and about and do some good at the same time.
The Operation Beautification clean-up event in Morgan City, originally scheduled for Feb. 13, has been rescheduled for Saturday. Also Saturday across the river in Patterson, the city government is sponsoring a Stuff the Truck event to help Texans affected by the winter weather.
The Operation Beautification Phase 1 event will begin by gathering volunteers at 8 a.m. Saturday at Morgan City Municipal Auditorium.
The clean-up is scheduled to run until noon.
The Patterson event will collect water for people in Texas, where millions of people are without water service after last week’s sub-freezing weather.
The collection will be 7:30-11:30 a.m. Saturday at Cypress Point Market in Place Norman Shopping Center in Patterson.
The truck loaded with water will leave for Texas at noon.
