Spring & Fall Litter Sweeps

It was a perfect day for a little Spring Cleaning!   

 A big thank you to everyone who came out for litter sweep.  

We had 41 participants who collected 61 bags of trash!  And that’s not all…there was other stuff/junk that wouldn’t fit into a bag.  

We cleared trash from our streets, neighborhoods, and by the waterways.  

Are you tired of seeing litter along our roadsides?  

Ask can be done?  

You can help solve this problem by joining our Spring and Fall Litter Sweep campaigns to help restore our town's beauty.  

Next Litter Sweep will be in 10/2

9 to noon

Come to Lower Parking Lot of Town Square

Join us at Town Square with masks and social distancing required before picking up your schedule.  Our goal is to tackle litter head-on by picking it up from our streets, neighborhoods, and by the waterways.  Volunteers of all ages from scout troops, community organizations, neighborhoods, churches, schools, businesses, and families can participate in the cleanup. 

NEW:  Please take Orange Bags filled on US 70 and NC 9 to bicycle rack @ Town Square.  Do not leave them beside those roads because it's too dangerous for the town's crew to stop.

We will have everything you need, just bring your family and friends.
