The Keep Hardy Beautiful Campaign will kick off May 1 and continue through May 5.The City of Hardy is encouraging all residents and area volunteers to pitch in and help keep the City of Hardy beautiful! Area volunteers may meet at Hardy City Hall to pick-up free cleanup sup-plies. A limited number of free tee-shirts will be available on a first come, first serve basis. Gloves, trash bags, recycle bags, and safety vests will all be available for use at no cost to our volunteers. This is funded in partnership with the Keep Arkansas Beautiful movement.
