Trash Bash Community Cleanup
Clear Lakers are so great at pitching in for their community!
And we’re hoping to do that again this year, with a cleanup week of April 19-24th.
We do want everyone to be safe, of course, and adhere to social distancing of staying a minimum of 6 feet from each other, wear masks when possible. If you are part of a team, think of it as a virtual team and take turns at the site.
We’ll post updates on where the trash can be dumped as we get closer to the date.
But in the meantime, reserve your favorite cleanup site(s) by registering today! Thank you!
Register now!Thank you and BE SAFE!
