Hawthorne/Jordan "Clean Sweep" Was A Whole Lot Of Garbage! Photos of Neighborhood Revitalization Footsoldiers, MORE!

Photos By John Hoff, Jeff Skrenes 

The 2009 Hawthorne/Jordan Neighborhood Clean Sweep had new faces as well as some very familiar long-time participants. (Standard stock sentence true of most neighborhood events, too early in the morning for literary creativity, possibly revise later, etc. etc.)

In the top photo, a declassified photo of the S.S. Minneapolis, the vessel used by the elite "Let's Roll" tire recovery unit. In the second photo... 

Housing Director Jeff Skrenes unloads beverages provided by the Pohlad Foundation, something like ten cases. The beverages were some kind of nutritional soda, and it was pretty good. The beverages had names like "Calm" and "Flex." In the next photo, Jeff poses with a can of the "Flex."

Next, another photo of SiSi Mitchell with her garbage grabber thingie. Below SiSi, one of the volunteers clowns around with a plastic bag, wearing it like a skirt. In the photo at the bottom, some participants in the Jordan cleanup. So many members of the "New Majority" Jordan board arrived to volunteer, I imagine somebody must have worried at some point about having an accidental quorum.

I'm sure Chairman Kip Browne didn't allow that to happen.
