Clinton Mayor Helen Michelassi is putting the call out for the community to step up and volunteer to better the community.

The Mayor is starting with a group of volunteers aimed at sprucing up the 'Welcome' signs outside the community.

A group of residents ready to volunteer recently met, and the Mayor says it was great to get ideas of what everyone cares about in Clinton and the ideas they have for the community.

Michelassi is serving out the unfinished term of Mayor from a special election this spring. In her short time as Mayor, she has been very focused on the strategic plan and moving forward with many of the initiatives it outlines.
