The Illick's Mill Partnership for Environmental Education is an innovative consortium transforming the City of Bethlehem's Illick's Mill into a community environmental center. We will establish a home for environmental action to preserve and protect the Monocacy Creek watershed and its abundant wildlife, and provide a model of environmentally sustainable practices and technology. Why re-use the Mill as an environmental center? Monocacy Nature Center, a 20-acre site contiguous to the mill, is located in a densely populated area, and is heavily utilized by local citizens.

Hi,
My name is Katrina Broughman and I'm from Glasgow. I have just recently started volunteering at Boxerwood Gardens in Lexington, where I inquired about organizing a clean-up day or two near my home.

I recently formed the Brunswick Redevelopment and Revitalization Committee in my hometown of Brunswick, MO. I was just tired of seeing my beloved hometown become weary, and decided to make a difference. Brunswick is a small town of only 925 people residing in the city limits, 1300 if you count the residents in the township. Downtown Brunswick is unique because unlike most cities our downtown is located directly on the major Highway 24.
