ASSET & Adopt-a-Spot: Our Service to Our Community

ASSET's contract with Keep Denton Beautiful states that ASSET is responsible for the upkeep of Oakland Street between Texas and Locust. Our contract stipulates that we clean up our area at least six times during the year.

We would like to see each member commit to walk either once or twice during the year. If you can comply, that’s all any of us would have to do. The project requires the participation of everyone and the Keep Denton Beautiful office appreciates your help!
