ach year OKC Beautiful selects winners from the Adopt-A-Park program for the Adopt- APark awards. The award recognizes neighborhoods or organizations, which help to keep parks and public spaces clean and beautiful. Winners are judged by the overall appearance, litter control, mowing and landscaping of their adopted site. This year, CH-EH Neighborhood Association was recognized for its maintenance of the Shartel Median. A trophy was presented by the Mayor, Mick Cornett and city council members at the city council meeting on October 27th. John Joyce and Dorothy Thadani received the trophy on behalf of the neighborhood. It is good to know that the hard work of the landscaping committee, chaired by Sharon Reeves, and the continued financial support of CH-EH Neighborhood Association are appreciated by the city.
