Letter to the editor: Thank you to volunteers for another successful Jack Sedlak Memorial Clean Up Day

Although we are still in the grip of the covid pandemic, we need to thank the 452 volunteers who donated their time to clean Monroeville’s roadways and parks for the 26th Annual Jack Sedlak Memorial Clean Up Day. The volunteers picked up more than 1,000 bags of litter, 40 tires, seven TVs and various other discarded items and debris.

We also would like to thank our generous sponsors and prize donators, without whom Clean Up Day, the post cleanup appreciation picnic and prize raffle would not be possible. The sponsors’ support and volunteers’ pride in Monroeville continue to make the Jack Sedlak Memorial Clean Up Day one of the largest cleanup events in Western Pennsylvania.

Despite the pandemic, we made a difference for the betterment of Monroeville. Thanks again to all of the volunteers and sponsors. It is this type of team effort that will allow us to make an even bigger impact in the future.

— The Sedlak familiy and the Municipality of Monroeville
