City of Clarion, Iowa

06/10/2026

The City of Clarion would like to do shoutouts to some amazing organizations within our community.

8 Hagie employees volunteered Friday, June 5 to pick up items from residents, who otherwise would not have been able to get items to Hanson Park, during clean-up days. These volunteers worked from 8 am – 3 pm making it to all 40 homes (from the list) picking up a wide variety of items with an abundance of large heavy items. What a daunting task 🦹‍♂️

Iowa Specialty Hospital did a Pic- Up Iowa event on Monday June 8th. For this event they chose to clean up the downtown alleys picking up garbage and pulling weeds, 26 volunteers filled 4 ex-large garbage bags. These members helped beautify our city’s downtown area before the festival this weekend. 👫

🎉Kudos to all the amazing individuals that volunteered their time and giving back to the community.

💙Volunteers make a difference … and your generosity does not go unnoticed. 🩷

Thank you – City of Clarion
