ALMOND, NY — Since 2021, the
Allegany County Democratic Committee has cleaned up a section of State Rt. 21
in Almond, NY as part of the NYS Department of Transportation’s
“Adopt-a-Highway” program. This year’s
spring clean-up took place on Monday, April 22nd – Earth Day. Numerous bags of trash were collected, giving
the roadway a much-improved appearance.
State Rt. 21 in Almond was specifically selected by the Committee because of its importance as a gateway to our county. This stretch of highway is heavily used by I-86 travelers on their way to the Alfred campuses or to recreational opportunities elsewhere in the area.
This project is
just one of the many ways local Democrats serve our community. To learn more, visit www.alleganycountydemocrats.org or find us on
Facebook. Reach out via email
info@alleganycountydemocrats.org or phone (585) 610-4321.
The
Allegany County Democratic Committee is the official governing body for the
County Party, working toward broader representation by Democrats at the local,
state, and national levels.
