Along with the Governor's Award winners, Ashe County Manager Dr. Pat Mitchell recognized a group of high school students who worked in conjunction with Keep Ashe Beautiful to paint over a wall, covering its graffiti, at the intersection of U.S. 221 and N.C. 163.
"I want to say how much we appreciate the clean up of that wall. It's one of the first things you see as you come up to that intersection, and I just think it's great that these young people are out there doing that kind of community development," said Mitchell at the end of Monday's meeting.
