Join our annual award-winning Community Clean-Ups in partnership with Keep PA Beautiful, NEPA Sierra Club, the Lackawanna County Environmental Office and other local organizations. Each cleanup will focus on a litter study to promote deeper discussion about waste and the environment.

On Wednesday, April 16th adults 18 and over are invited to cleanup along route 247 at the Jessup Park-N-Ride at 5:30 P.M. Last year we found over 90 40oz Smirnoff glass bottles at this location alone! We know this because we counted everything we find with the Best Practice’s Award-Winning Litter Study where we take an in-depth look at what litter we are finding at each location.

Due to the high traffic along this section of road and multiple road crossings we will be doing this event is strictly 18 and over. The road is on a long mountain grade and will have us using those calf muscles as we walk up and down the road and in the woods.

If you have a Community Cleanup Shirt from a previous cleanup, please wear that. You are welcome to bring your own gloves and trash grabbers. Trash bags, gloves, vest, and road signs are provided by Keep NEPA Beautiful.
