Established in 2011
Thomas County Commissioners recognized the need for educational programs and other efforts to combat litter in our community. After 12 months of research and work by an appointed pre-certification committee, the local KAB affiliate was approved. KTCB efforts include educational programs and projects to address such issues as litter, recycling, and beautification. |
