But, do they do windows?


On Saturday, April 21st the Dauphin County Young Democrats got down and dirty on the streets of downtown Harrisburg. We slipped on our gloves, grabbed handfuls of trash bags, and headed to the streets to beautify the capitol city.

April 22nd was the Governor’s annual Great PA Cleanup. The Dauphin County Young Democrats wanted to exercise our political belief of a healthy environment and become more active within the greater community.

Many people probably would not expect picking up trash would be fun; however, our members had a blast. We joked, goofed around, and enjoyed the beautiful weather while picking up leavings, trash, and other unmentionables from the streets.

When we finally finished, each of us had a sense of accomplishment. You could see the difference where we had cleaned. Many spectators of the day commented on how active the Dauphin County Young Democrats were. It was an great event with great people working for an great, clean cause.
