Earth Day Frequently Asked Questions
What should I wear? What do I need to bring?
Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing. Expect to walk on grass or uneven surfaces and to bend down to pick up debris. Bags and gloves will be provided. Be sure to bring water, snacks, and any other personal items you might need.
Where should I park?
Parking at MPRB meters and lots will not be enforced until 1 pm on Saturday, April 19. Just ensure you're parked at an MPRB location. A map of MPRB parking facilities can be found here.
Are kids welcome?
Absolutely! We do ask that children are accompanied by an adult.
What if we find heavy or sharp objects?
Please do not touch any heavy, sharp, or potentially hazardous items. Each site coordinator will provide specific instructions, but we ask that volunteers take a picture of the item and note the location. Site coordinators will help you submit this information to MPRB staff, who will address the issue.
Do we need to stay for the entire event?
You are welcome to volunteer for any amount of time that fits your schedule. We appreciate any time you can dedicate to the cleanup and are grateful for your help!
What if we want to clean up but can’t participate in the event this year?
If you're in the City of Minneapolis and want to host your own cleanup at any time of the year, the City of Minneapolis can help connect you with information and supplies.
