Hours for the City Wide Clean Up are 7 Am to 12 Noon. Show up any time if you'd like to volunteer to help unload vehicles, be sure to bring gloves. Otherwise, if you are dropping off items, be sure your vehicle is hand unloadable. The Kewanee City Wide Clean Up takes place at the former site of Kewanee Hospital on Elliott Street and Division in Kewanee. 

When Terrance Banks was young, he took up poetry as a coping mechanism for a difficult childhood. That poetry eventually became song lyrics and when combined with his love for old school soul music, Soultru was born. SoulTru comes from Terrance Banks' soul, his love of poetry and his dedication to the soul music that inspired him to become a musician. This weekend SoulTru is coming to the Levitt Amp Galva Music Series with his incredible brand of soul and poetry. We were lucky to have a chance to talk music, poetry and DoorDash with Terrance Banks, AKA, SoulTru on Wake Up Tri-Counties on Friday, May 24th. See Terrance in Galva on Sunday night.
