Park Board and City Announce 2015 Earth Day Clean-Up Event
Via a March 5 Minneapolis Park and Rec Board e-newsletter:
The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board along with the City of Minneapolis announce the 21st annual Minneapolis Earth Day Clean-Up event on Saturday, April 25, 2015 from 9:30 am–12 pm.
The Earth Day Clean-Up has become the largest community service project in Minneapolis and takes place at nearly 40 clean-up sites throughout the city. Since 2008, more than 17,000 residents have removed more than 140,000 pounds of garbage. A special thank you to our 2015 Earth Day Sponsors for supporting this important community event: Cargill, the Minnesota Twins, Birchwood Café and The Wedge.
There is no charge to participate and residents are encouraged to participate by volunteering to help pick up trash in parks, neighborhoods, and watersheds. No registration needed, just choose a site and show up. To find a detailed list of clean-up sites and more information please visit http://www.minneapolisearthday.com/ or call 612-230-6479.
