🌿🚮 Exciting News for Bartow! 🚮🌿

Keep Polk County Beautiful, Inc. is proud to announce the expansion of our Adopt-A-Road and Adopt-A-Park Programs into the City of Bartow!

This exciting opportunity is made possible through a valued partnership with the City of Bartow, a Florida Municipality and the Bartow Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA). Together, we are working to create cleaner, greener, and more beautiful public spaces while fostering community pride and stewardship.

We are now seeking volunteers, businesses, churches, civic organizations, schools, families, and community groups to help make a difference by adopting a roadway or park in Bartow. These programs are completely FREE and provide a meaningful way to give back to the community while helping keep Bartow beautiful.

By participating, groups will:
✅ Help reduce litter and beautify public spaces
✅ Demonstrate community pride and leadership
✅ Receive recognition for their commitment to keeping Bartow clean and attractive
✅ Make a lasting impact for residents and visitors alike

📞 For more information or to adopt a roadway or park, contact Keep Polk County Beautiful, Inc. today. (863)875-8911 o visit our website at https://www.keeppolkcountybeautiful.org/

Together, with the City of Bartow and the Bartow CRA, we can build a cleaner, more beautiful community—one road and one park at a time! 💚
