Letter To Editor
The Newberry County Beau
tification Committee deeply ap
preciates the interest and ef
forts of all Newberry County
citizens which recently culmi
nated in our winning the Gov
ernor’s Trophy for first place in
the State Beautification Contest.
The significance of the Award
becomes more apparent with
the realization that in the sev
eral years since the Contest's
beginning. Newberry is the first
small county to win this signal
honor. Only by unselfish dedi
cation and untiring effort on the
part of many, many individuals
and organizations was this
achievement made possible.
The Beautification Program
has indeed been county-wide in
scope. At some point in its pro
gress almost every public offi
cial, organization and agency
wuthin the County has either by
endorsement or active partici
pation helped us reach this goal.
To these efforts have been add
ed the support of business and
industry and finally the whole
hearted support of all indivi
duals has encompassed the en
tire County with involvement
in the Beautification Program.
As a result of such wonderful
cooperation recognition and hon
or have been forthcoming for
Newberry County. But the great
est benefit is the improvements
that have been made. As a re
sult of these clean-up and beau
tification efforts, our beloved
Newberry County is now a clean
er, more beautiful and more
healthful place to live.
Such achievement is certainly
a source of pride and satis
faction to the Beautification
Committee. Let us not, however,
be content to rest on our present
laurels of attainment. Beautifi
cation is a continuing program
and much remains to be done.
Now that this spirit of county
wide cooperation has been so
ably demonstrated, surely we
can move toward greater goals
of endeavor.
Each of the other officers of
the Beautification Committee
Committee joins me in this
heartful expression to a job well
done. To each and every one
we say simply, but sincerely,
“Thank you!”
