NORWICH – Bring your hometown spirit, a rake, and a push broom, and join in the Main Street Sweep starting at 9 a.m., May 18, and meeting in East Park.

“We’re having our BID Main Street Sweep this Saturday and we’re in need of volunteers,” said Norwich Business Improvement District (BID) Board Member Mindy Chawgo.

She said they’ll group up to tackle the areas that need attention, adding sparkle around the city.
