Got to the shop today to find the City of Olympia probation crew (one supervisor and four guys) sweeping, blowing and steam cleaning the sidewalk on 4th ave between Adams and Jefferson. I never have a camera on me, so you'll just have to come by and check it out. You won't be able to tell it's Sunday morning on a block of bars! (I think they hit the alcove down the street next to the Ward's building as well. Most of us know it by its smell.) All people on the crew today are guys and look to be well under thirty, and are all non-violent offenders (mostly DUIs & possession charges, I think). It is so much better to see people spending time cleaning downtown instead of sitting in jail for a day or two.  |
