Volunteers clean up Chicago's Grant Park
CHICAGO (CBS) -- Around 300 volunteers joined forces Saturday to clean up Chicago's Grant Park.
Teams picked up trash and pulled weeds.
"It's our future, not only for the current generation but our kids and our grandkids and our great grandkids. This is the front yard of the city of Chicago, and it's important to ensure that it puts on its best face," said organizer Jim Wales with the Rotary Club of Chicago.
