First monthly village clean-up


First monthly village clean-up
Originally uploaded by parisdelhi.
The village has decided to come together every first Wednesday of the month to clean the public areas. The chief (in yellow on the right), in consultation with the public, has decided that beginning January 1st 2007 any animal left roaming will cost the owner a 1 dollar ,or 500 franc, fine. The decision was taken by the village after discovering the negative health effects and loss of valuable manure caused by roaming animals. The photo is of the launch of the first village clean-up, where recently Red Cross trained students explained to the public the importance of a clean village.
