Doosan Bobcat employees partnered with North Iredell High School student-athletes and coaches for a “beautification” and litter reduction project on April 7.

The clean-up included include about 15 Doosan Bobcat employees and about 30 football players and coaches from North Iredell High. Local law enforcement officers were present to help keep the group safe during their volunteer efforts along Glenway Drive frontage road and James Farm Road.

The volunteers removed 49 bags of litter along with other debris found along the roadway on James Farm and 24 bags of garbage on Glenway Drive.

According to Doosan Bobcat officials, the company has a long history of committing time and resources in the communities where its customers, dealers and employees live and work.

“We’re proud to invest in our communities, and we are appreciative of North Iredell High School’s partnership in the clean-up project near Glenway Drive to beautify our community,” said Kevin Smith, Doosan Bobcat Statesville site operations manager.
