Trashy Tuesday Litter Clean Up
Join us for our monthly summer litter clean up events to help keep our rivers and streams healthy & clean.
Trashy Tuesday is a monthly litter clean up program hosted in the summer by the City of Keizer's Environmental & Technical Team. Our goal is to build strong connections with our community while doing something good to protect our environment. We believe that small actions can have large impacts when amplified across our community, so join us to help keep our rivers and streams free from litter.
Trashy Tuesdays will be hosted from 5:30-6:30pm on the 3rd Tuesday of every month from June - September. Locations will vary and will be shared with participants one week prior to the event.
Sign up here.
We will provide trash bags, pickers, gloves and vests. Volunteers should wear close-toed shoes, weather appropriate clothing and bring water bottles. A water refill station will be provided. See our schedule below.
