Clean Evansville will target areas in Ward 6 on Evansville’s West Side during the monthly trash pick-up this Saturday, March 7, from 9a-11a. Teams will gather at locations near Harmony Way and Maryland Street.

Volunteers will be picking up trash and litter near the following locations and surrounding neighborhoods: Helfrich Park Middle School, Tekoppel Elementary School, Mead Johnson Nutritionals, and VFW Post 1114 on North Wabash Avenue. Motorists are asked to drive with caution if they see pedestrians picking up trash along the side of the road.

All teams will meet in the parking lot of the Mesker Park Shelter House, 1545 Mesker Park Drive, to deposit trash collected by the volunteers. Clean Evansville partners with Republic Services to depose of all trash.

In conjunction with this month’s clean event, Keep Evansville Beautiful will host its kickoff to the Great American Cleanup. This is an opportunity for organizations and neighborhoods to register for a trash cleanup in 2015. Free supplies for all clean-ups will be provided.

Keep Evansville Beautiful coordinates volunteers for the monthly clean-ups. Anyone interested in joining or forming a team should contact Cody Morris at 812-425-4461.
