Thank you!!! Beautify PiHi on March 15th was a community success!
The Piedmont Heights Business Alliance and the Piedmont Heights Civic Association are so thankful to everyone who supported the Beautify PiHi clean up on Saturday, March 15th. We are so grateful to the 73 volunteers from nearby residents, Selig Enterprises, Georgia Power, business owners and people who care about supporting small businesses! Thank you volunteers!
-
Thank you to Selig Enterprises for sponsoring the event, providing breakfast as well as the perfect meeting spot at Ansley Mall. We were so thrilled to have the Selig family in attendance.
-
Thank you to the Atlanta BeltLine Partnership for providing trash grabbers, garbage bags, volunteers and a community outreach booth.
-
Thank you to the Ansley Golf Course for picking up the bags and disposing them into the dumpster- we couldn’t have done it without your golf carts!

Thank you to City of Atlanta City council member, Alex Wan, for attending and speaking with so many neighbors and business owners.

Thank you to Fire Station 22 for providing EMT services. Thank goodness we didn’t need it.

Thank you to PiHi Alliance members Nabo and Midtown Family Wellness for being a pop-up with us. I wonder who won the free massage and pizza oven?

Thank you to Creative Punch Design for the great graphics!
-
Thank you to the PiHi Alliance and Piedmont Heights Civic Association volunteer board members-Sachi Takahra, Jan Epstein, Bob Glascock, Susan Kanelos and Kris Martin for coordinating the event, leading clean up teams and being an awesome year-round volunteer.
Our efforts covered 2 miles along the NE trail of the Atlanta BeltLine and streets around Ansley Mall including Montgomery Ferry, Monroe Drive and Piedmont Avenue from Clear Creek to Pelham.
-
The eager crew collected over 50 full bags of trash filled with cigarette butts, a lot of stir straws, a push broom, an Apple watch, boxes, broken glass, chip and candy wrappers, plastic cups and straws, bottles, cans, a bra, khaki pants, shoes, a car bumper and windshield, a positive pregnancy test, a smashed radio, books, a Beyonce CD and even a prom dress.
-
Wow, so glad all that trash is longer on our streets.
Beautify PiHi supports residents, small businesses and everyone who frequents the commercial districts of the greater Piedmont Heights.
Thank you for cleaning up Piedmont Heights on March 15th. We appreciate your support!
