This year, we're kicking off a full week of Litter Blitz activity by participating in the Interpretive Program's Earth Day Bash in Police Point Park on Saturday, April 26. Join us on-site there from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. for tons of family-friendly Earth Day activities and to pick up your Litter Blitz supplies.

The Litter Blitz will run from Saturday, April 26 to Saturday, May 3. This week-long effort is aimed at beautifying our city by cleaning up litter. We're calling on organizations, schools, and all residents to take part in this community initiative!

To celebrate all the hard work and support of our Blitzers, we're then hosting a Thank You BBQ back in Police Point Park on Saturday, May 3. Join us from 12 p.m. - 2 p.m. for a fun BBQ to recognize your hard work and contributions to your community.

We invite everyone to join a city-wide clean-up event!
