Clean Up, Green Up

Fourteen participants in the Clean Up Green Up volunteer program post of a photo with bags of trash they've collected.

Join your neighbors and community to clean up our businesses, streets and alleys, parks, greenways, and fields during the Annual Clean Up, Green Up event this April 5-19. You or your group are invited to clean up at any time during this period.

This year, bags and gloves can be picked up at the Longmont Public Library (409 4th Ave.) between April 5 and 19 during Library business hours. Please wear gloves for your safety during your clean up activities.

Want more information, trash and recycle bags, or to sign up for a larger group cleanup? Contact post.volunteer@longmontcolorado.gov

This event is sponsored by the City of Longmont Parks & Natural Resources Division and the Longmont Public Library.

Program Description

Community groups, businesses, schools, neighborhoods, families and individuals can participate. Volunteers choose a neighborhood, a park, a trail, an open space or a street to clean up (or the Clean Up, Green Up coordinator can help in assigning an area).

After the Kickoff event and throughout the rest of the month, volunteers are welcome to stop by the library during business hours to pick up clean up materials, or larger groups can contact the Clean Up, Green Up coordinator at post.volunteer@longmontcolorado.gov to organize group Clean Up, Green Up events.
