On Friday, April 20th, members of the Heart of Taunton, Taunton Area Chamber of Commerce, Taunton Business Improvement District and Taunton Rotary participated in the annual Clean Up Day for Downtown Taunton.

Participants cleaned many areas of the downtown, including the municipal parking areas. Many thanks to all members that participated. Additional thanks to the Taunton DPW and Republic Services (formerly Allied Waste) for helping with the trash removal.
