A.C.T.S with Lifepoint Church and Main Street Chillicothe

Last Updated 9/12/2024


Our beautiful downtown continues to thrive as a clean and welcoming spot for all community members and visitors. This success is largely thanks to the dedicated efforts of community members and volunteers. We were especially fortunate to receive volunteer support from Lifepoint’s A.C.T.S. group for various projects in the district during June. These projects included several alley cleanups, maintenance and trimming in Silver Moon Plaza, and new mulch around trees on Locust in the Kelly Poling Art District. Such partnerships foster community pride and unity.

Advancing Community Through Service, or A.C.T.S., is a community group led by Paul Ficken of Lifepoint Church. This group consists of volunteers of all ages who aim to enhance the community through various services. Meeting every Wednesday in June, they volunteer for downtown cleanup, yard work, nursing home assistance, and more. If you are interested in learning more about Lifepoint Church you can visit them online at www.lifepoint-church.com

Main Street Chillicothe extends heartfelt gratitude to all the outstanding individuals in the A.C.T.S. program. The dedication and hard work of community members are what make our community exceptional. Thank you for your invaluable service and commitment.
