30 Years Ago May 18, 1990

“Do Day” held last week in Platte City was reported successful this week by Patsy Baber, Community Betterment chairman. The work was accomplished by 450 students from Platte County R-3 High School and adult leaders who volunteered their services. One of the major projects involved planting 300 tiny tree seedlings at the intersection of I-29 and Main Street and flowers around the telephone poles at this entrance to the city. Work was also done on projects at the swimming pool and the Youth Building.
