A grant from Keep Iowa Beautiful and Diamond Vogel Paint has been awarded to Drakesville Betterment Committee and the City of Drakesville. We have received 8 gallons of Diamond Vogel paint to help spruce up our city park and/or public buildings. Volunteers will be painting in the near future. If you would like to help please contact Mayor Robert Sampson or City Clerk and Drakesville Betterment Committee president Susan Hopkins. Our sincere thanks to Keep Iowa Beautiful and Diamond Vogel Paints for their generous contribution to our project and a big thank you as well to all the community volunteers that so generously provide the needed man hours that keeps improving our community.
