About Citrus 2020
In 1995, Citrus 20/20 found what is treasured most in Citrus County is the unique and irreplaceable wealth of the county's natural resources, from trees to parks and preserves to greenbelts.
Our indigenous natural resources need to be maintained and restored for future generations. More particularly, we treasure the water resources in our county's lakes, springs, rivers and estuaries along the gulf, as well as the inter-related underground aquifer that supplies them and gives us our drinking water.
We treasure our education system with its growing potential and its ability to meet the changing needs of our young people and residents. Our small town atmosphere, the rich people-resources of our diverse population, our low crime rate and extensive community involvement all make Citrus County the special place that it is.
We recognize that our future economic and physical well-being, our desire for managed growth, and our semi-rural ambience depend upon our ability to take a balanced stand. It is for this purpose that we create this Vision Statement to help chart that course.

Recycling Focus
1st Annual Citrus County Recycles Day, Saturday, Nov. 12, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at the Inverness Wal-Mart Garden Center.
Recycling should be an everyday habit. And with the introduction of single-stream recycling in Citrus County, recycling is now easier than ever. To promote the recycling habit, Citrus 20/20 will host the 1st Annual Citrus County Recycles Day on Saturday, Nov. 12, 2011, from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. in the Garden Center of the Inverness Wal-Mart on Gulf-to-Lake Highway. The event will precede America Recycles Day on Nov. 15, the only nationally recognized day dedicated to promoting and celebrating recycling in the United States.
Citrus 20/20, in partnership with Citrus County Solid Waste Division, Keep Citrus Beautiful and FDS Disposal, is promoting the importance of recycling throughout the County. Lace Blue McLean, president of Citrus 20/20, is excited about this strategic partnership and invites the community to come out on Nov. 12 and learn how recycling can help protect our county's natural resources and save money in the long run!
Vice President of Recycling Programs at Keep America Beautiful and National Program Manager for America Recycles Day, Brenda Pulley said, "We are very proud supporters of Citrus 20/20's Citrus County Recycles Day event and commend their efforts to promote recycling throughout their county. Recycling is the easiest thing we can all do to save energy, conserve natural resources and create green jobs. Collectively, through events like these, we aim to make recycling bigger and better 365 days a year."
