This year’s Clean Gloucester Day will be held on Friday, March 24 and Saturday, March 25. Clean Gloucester Day held a week before the Daffodil Festival and is a way for Gloucester residents to clean up roads and public areas prior to the celebration.
Last year, 550 volunteers participated in the countywide cleanup.
“These volunteers picked up an astonishing total of 20,250 pounds of trash,” said Sherry Kosakowski, Gloucester’s Clean Community Coordinator. “We hope to have even more volunteers join us to pick up Gloucester’s roadsides this year.”
Younger volunteers are encouraged to clean up public spaces such as schools and parks. Those under the age of 18 must be under adult supervision at all times. Groups of volunteers can select a spot to clean up or one can be assigned.
There will be a dumpster set up next to Gloucester Library at Main Street Center for trash drop-off. Volunteers can also take the trash to any of the five convenience centers located throughout the county.
