Summer Litter Clean-Up
2020 Virtual Event
Dear Volunteers - Please join us for this year's "Summer" Litter Clean-Up (SLC)!
July 4-25
July 4-25
Clermont Soil & Water Conservation District (SWCD) and the Valley View Foundation (VVF) are working with local partners to coordinate this year's Do-It-Yourself SLC event during the month of July. Kicking off on July 4th in honor of our nation's independence, we ask volunteers to pick any day July 4-25 to participate in the SLC! Individuals or small groups can find a nearby area in need of litter removal. Volunteers can practice social distancing while they enjoy local parks and open spaces, walk trails, and canoe the river or lake. Clean-up materials, including protective gloves and trash bags, can be made available to volunteers. A small thank you gift will be included with clean-up materials, while supplies last. Community coordinators can also help volunteers find suitable locations for litter pick-up. Please visit the registration page for more details.
