Registration opens for the City of Chattanooga’s kids and teen summer camp
Remembering MLK's Legacy FT. Chattanooga Public Works
The City of Chattanooga has rescheduled the annual MLK Day of Service to April 4-6, 2024 after inclement winter weather forced the cancellation of the event scheduled to take place on January 15. The annual service day is dedicated to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s life and mission to serve the community.
This is the 12th year the City of Chattanooga, and UTC have organized the MLK Day of Service. Past projects have included neighborhood cleanups, flower- and tree-planting, and school improvement initiatives. This year, the event will be focused on celebrating public works employees - for whom Dr. King was advocating in Memphis when he was assassinated on April 4, 1968. This year’s commemoration will feature a special address from Roshonda Woods, the first female and the first African American to serve as Chattanooga’s Solid Waste Manager.
