Public Invited to Keep Duluth Clean April 25

Even with a stay-at-home order, everyone can still go outside for a variety of things.  The City Of Duluth encourages everyone to do some picking up on Saturday.

Keep Duluth Clean is a city-wide cleanup scheduled for April 25.  It's a great, yet simple concept that other cities have organized.  As you go out for a socially distanced walk in your area, make a point to pick up any trash you see laying around.

Here is how to formally participate in Duluth:

• Click here to sign up.
• Grab a five-gallon bucket or old grocery bag to reuse (or another bag available to you).
• Put on your gloves or grab your litter grabber.
• Pick up whatever litter you see for at least 30 minutes
• Get picky! Look for little pieces of plastic and cigarette butts.
• Have some extra time? Sweep your sidewalk, curb and/or boulevard of sand and salt and bring to a Road Sand Collection Site.  Click here for locations.
• Wave to your neighbors!
• Take pictures of your amazing work.
• Dispose of the collected waste in your personal trash containers.
• Wash your hands.

Everyone is encouraged to tag @KeepDuluthClean and #KeepDuluthClean online.

You can also be be entered to win prizes by sharing and posting participation photos in the comment section on the Virtual Clean-Up social posts on Saturday, April 25 and by reporting your volunteer hours through the Keep Duluth Clean Litter Report.
