WHO IS INVITED:
This is a community event. Adults and supervised children are all welcome
HOW THIS WORKS:
Join your neighbors along your street and walk your area, picking up trash. We plan to respect our neighbors’ yards and keep to the street and the area of city property along the street. For particular problem areas, you are welcome to join others in a larger team to work together. For particular concerns or problems you encounter, please bring those to the attention of your neighborhood watch co-coordinators or block captain. Particular areas of focus are greenways connecting streets, Princeton block between Oxford and Hope Valley, and Oxford Drive Block 3000 to University along Epworth Church.
WHAT EQUIPMENT IS NEEDED:
o Bring Blue bags for glass and plastic recyclables.
o Bring Dark brown or green jumbo trash bags for paper/other trash.
HOW LONG SHOULD THIS TAKE:
There is no time limit and this one day event runs from 9:30AM mid afternoon; you may take as little or long as you like; set your own hours. Whatever works.
WHAT TO WEAR/HOW TO DRESS:
Sunscreen; Comfortable, loose-fitting work clothing; a hat or visor; Garden gloves recommended.
Please join us .
AND HAPPY EARTH DAY TO ALL
Feel free to use the big dumpster in our driveway (3000 block of Oxford) for any trash! We are moving into today, so we will be in and out, but the dumpster has plenty of room!

Thank you Joe & Brittany for the response. Apologies for not seeing your comments sooner. If the dumpster still there after the rain lets up we may just take you up on your offer. Also welcome to the neighborhood!!
