Keep the Midlands Beautiful is hosting a FREE two-day ‘Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design’ class which normally costs over $600. It is available at no charge to anyone who wants to learn why and how to improve and maintain the appearance of your property (home or business) in order to make it safer and less attractive to criminals.

Although particularly popular among architects, law enforcement, and business owners, all are welcome! Continuing Education Unit (CIU) hours and certification provided. Class will be held at the Pineview Ruritan Club in West Columbia June 16 & 17 from 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.
