SUMMARY: During Hattiesburg’s Parks and Recreation Week, city officials and volunteers came together to clean up and beautify Duncan Lake near James Street. The goal is to encourage residents to use and enjoy the city’s many parks for various celebrations and activities. The Piney Woods Conservation Group also emphasized the importance of keeping the city clean, as everything flows into Gordon’s Creek, which eventually reaches the ocean. Hattiesburg Parks and Recreation encourages residents to join in the effort by picking up trash in their neighborhoods. The week-long event also features a “Chalk Walk” at Chain Park on Wednesday.
