Dozens of volunteers were invited to breakfast at 8 a.m. to kick off the community event at Millennium Park, Conover Center in Mercer County, and Old Train Depot in Lincoln County, before heading out to their assigned areas in their communities. In Danville, volunteers were kept busy planting trees, flowers and shrubs, painting walls, scrapping a handicapped accessible ramp, painting curbs and evening washing windows.
