Keep Williston Clean

Spring Edition

Williston is one of the few lucky cities in our country experiencing a great economic boom. While the boom has created an abundance of jobs and opportunities, it has also created an abundance of trash. Mayor Ward Koeser and several Williston business professionals and citizens have come together to form the "Keep Williston Clean" committee. The main focus of the committee can be found in its name, "Keep Williston Clean."

As a part of the cleanup efforts, the committee would like to encourage Williston businesses to clean up litter on their property between Earth Day, April 22nd and Band Day, May 12th. By cleaning up the litter on your property, this eliminates the amount of trash being blown around town. Several businesses in and around Williston have already begun the cleanup efforts. Wal-Mart, Statoil, Liberty Construction Development Group, Halliburton, & Schlumberger are just a few of the many companies that have been working to clean up their property and surrounding areas. If your business has or is planning to join the cleanup efforts, we would like to hear about it. Please email [email protected] to let us know when and where your business cleaned up trash.

The Keep Williston Clean Committee has organized two initial city wide cleanup days in preparation for Band Day: Saturday, April 28th and Saturday, May 5th. Individuals and small groups that wish to participate can meet at the Williston High School Football Field parking lot at 8:30am on either day. From there, volunteers will be provided gloves and trash bags and sent to cleanup locations. Following the cleanup, Target Logistics will provide lunch at Davidson Park.

Large businesses or groups that wish to participate are asked to call the Keep Williston Clean phone line, 701-577-6000, option 8, and leave a message. A representative from the committee will respond to set up a location for the group to clean and discuss logistics.

For more information or questions, please call the Keep Williston Clean phone line at 701-577-6000, option 8. If everyone does their part, we will be able to create a cleaner, safer, better Williston!
