The Atlantic Area Chamber of Commerce hopes you’ll lend a hand and help make the City RAGBRAI ready, beginning 9-a.m. Saturday, July 6th. Starting at the Atlantic City Park, individuals will walk the route through town picking up trash, spraying and pulling weeds, sweeping off road shoulders, etc.

Trash bags, trimmers, Roundup, shovels, rakes, etc. will be needed. Participating people/businesses that donate product and/or their time will be mentioned on Around Atlantic, Atlantic RAGBRAI and Atlantic Chamber Facebook pages.

If you can help and/or donate items needed, please contact Nick Harris at nicholasj7@yahoo.com, call 402-981-8876 or message Around Atlantic on Facebook.
