GEC Students Join Kinston’s Annual Cleanup
Several Greene Early College recently partnered with Kinston’s Public Service Department Annual Fall Cleanup. Planned every October since 2000, community volunteers are urged to participate in this event. Joined by GEC parents, Mario Mendoza and Soni Hawkins, Public Works Personnel, GEC students, and students from other schools, the group was assigned to cleanup Neuse Way Park. Situated on 55 acres of land along the Neuse River in Kinston, the park is ideal for field trips for educational and school groups. The Nature Center includes campground, trails, parks, around buildings, etc. Other groups were assigned various areas in Kinston.
