26th Annual Community Pride Highway Cleanup
Saturday, May 2, 2026
Description
The 26th Annual Community Pride Highway Cleanup is a longstanding community event is crucial for keeping the roadways and ditches clean of litter, which would likely otherwise make its way to sensitive riverine habitats. It is because of the hard work of team leaders and volunteers, as well as the generosity of sponsors, that this event is possible! Every year, hundreds of dedicated volunteers participate in the county-wide Community Pride Highway Cleanup.
From its inception in the early 2000’s, in which nearly 50 tons of trash had accumulated and was removed, great strides have been made to reduce littering, and now an average of 10-15 tons of debris is removed annually.
