The KKB have erected a large display to advertise the 2013 Tidy towns competition in the City. A currently disused high profile building has been spruced up with Kenny the Cat and the message “reduce reuse and recycle”

Winning the War on Litter
Kilkenny is looking even more beautiful. Last Thursday evening KKB joined volunteers including many from the The Butts area to do a clean up around The Butts and St. Canice’s Church area. The area has been so well maintained that everyone arrived back before the hour was up as there was so little rubbish. THIS is the result that KKB is looking for! Well done to all involved.

Still Watching, and Winning!
Litter Cameras are still doing a great job in Kilkenny. There were two separate fines in the court this week each of almost 2000 Euro when costs were added in.

Chewing gum – Bin it your way!
Kilkenny City launches “bin it your way” for 2013. Chewing gum is one of the most difficult wastes to clean from our city streets. It is so easy to dispose of it in the bin or by using a gum pop. why not try it !
Well done to Kilkenny Sub Aqua Club
The Sub Aqua Club did more than their fair share of helping keep their city beautiful with a huge effort from their members in cleaning up the river Nore during the week. Our river Nore is one of our city’s amazing resources and this group of dedicated volunteers collected much as a result of others not appreciating it. Throwing rubbish in the river does not make it disappear!!!!!! 
Many thanks to SOS
SOS on the Callan Road are busy again. This group of dedicated Kilkenny residents have taken on the task of keeping the Callan road up to standard for the summer. They will now be eligible to enter the draw for the Bruce Springstein tickets as part of the Bruce Spring-Clean. Best of luck.
Why not consider helping them on their weekly clean-up or on any other KKB clean-up.
New Bag to help us bag this years Tidy Towns
The Cats Out of the Bag… well at least on it!
Yesterday saw the launch of the County Councils and KKB new initiative to get more people involved in keeping their own areas clean. The black and amber bags are the perfect size for minor litter on approach roads, or if you can just walking or on the bike.
Why not join those who are helping keep Kilkenny as beautiful as it should be.
