Wollaston Garden Club—Civic Beautification Contributions 2007
May 5, 2007 was designated “Cleaner, Greener Quincy” day, and in keeping with the theme, the Civic Beautification committee of the WGC , led by Jo Costello, set out to clean up and prepare the corners of Beale and Newport and Beale and Grandview for summer. The day was one of the few steamy mornings in spring, and the workers expended a lot of effort to get things looking neat and tidy. The following photos are just some examples of everyone pitching in to make a contribution. Great job!!!. Here it is, August already, and everything is in bloom and still looking great.
Our Civic Beautification Site at the corner of Newport Avenue and Beale Street in Wollaston was planted on June 30, 2001 with the cooperation of Tom Koch, Director of the Park and Forestry Department. In the Spring of 2002 we continued across the street at the bottom of Grand View Avenue. It was completed in the Fall of 2004. We continue the maintenance at both sites.
