Who were those good-deed-doers in yellow? Maricopa Lions Club members were on highway-cleanup duty Nov. 15. They picked up trash along State Route 347 north of the city after organizing in the Ace Hardware parking lot.

Earlier, the service group installed a garden trellis at a local domestic violence shelter and gave $500 to the F.O.R. Maricopa Food Bank.
