MILWAUKEE - The snow has melted and the trash is evident, so a large group dedicated hours and took their spring cleaning to the Milwaukee streets Saturday, April 17. People came together to hear words of unity and pride, but it's the group's actions that really made a difference. Trishya Brown brought her daughters to Washington Park for Saturday's clean-up effort. "I want my kids to be involved in the community. I want them to be part of giving back and cleaning up and spend time on their Saturday morning helping others," Brown said.
