From the Front Door
Bv Tom Boothe
From The Front Door, The Exodus Clean Team has initiated a Community
Awareness Campaign, headed and coordinated by Mr. Daryl L. Griffith. He
w ill initially contact the households w ith door hangers w ithin the area
between NE 15th West, to NE 33rd East, and between NE Killingsworth
North to NE Prescott South; after which he and his crew will organize to con­
tact all households, by way of door hangers w ithin Northeast Portland
between the Minnesota Blvd., North to NE Broadway South, as well as the
entire North Portland area. His goal is to accomplish this task by mid-
September. This effort amounts to a lot of hard work in a door to door cam­
paign, in order to make the community aware of its responsibility to help
keep our community clean and safe, as well as where to get help in doing so.
I am sure Mr. Griffith can use all the help he can get and would welcome
anyone who wish to help in any way.
Monetary donations, and manpower and womanpower are the greatest
needs at this point. Young boys and girls in the community have come forth
and volunteered themselves, however, Mr. G riffith says it is more en­
couraging for these young citizens to receive some form of reward as a token
of the community's appreciation for their effort in helping to keep our com­
munity clean.
The results of the past two Saturdays have been overwhelming successful.
Citizen participation is the key to the Clean Team's success.
Mr. Griffith invites you to join him in an effort to clean and keep our com­
munity clean and safe.
There are meetings each Wednesday at 7:00 p.m., and Saturday morning at
9:00 a.m., at 1639 NE Alberta, Portland, Oregon.
He hopes to see you at one meeting or the other, and so do I...
