Virtual Earth Day Clean-Up!
Starting Saturday April 4th and running through Saturday April 18th.
Get out, get active, enjoy the spring weather, gather & bag litter from all the public spaces in our lovely neighborhood and COMPETE FOR FABULOUS PRIZES!!!.
Instructions:
- Please focus on the litter. It's great if you clean storm drains, but organic matter (leaves, sticks, and the like) cannot be part of your loot.
- Weigh your bags, take pictures of yourself holding them high like trophies, and send the results to litter.ppa@gmail.com. (Please post the areas you have covered.)
- PLEASE BE SAFE: practice social distancing, use gloves, don't venture into areas that are too steep or inaccessible, don't lift more than you can manage.
Borders of the neighborhood are Oak Street, Emerald Avenue, the Mississippi River and 4th Street. If you go to the Mississippi River, focus your clean up on the walking path. Please do not disturb homeless encampments.
Some gloves will be available on the porch at 111 Melbourne Avenue, but please provide your own bags or recyclable containers.
Winners will be announced in the May PPA newsletter.
