4     WHEREAS, The Governor's Home Town Award program recognizes
5 citizens of Illinois who give unselfishly of their time, money
6 and efforts to make their communities better places to live and
7 work; and
 
8     WHEREAS, Mt. Vernon's annual City-Wide Cleanup day started
9 in 1997; the citizens of Mt. Vernon wanted to make their
