Keep Tyler Beautiful’s annual Great Tyler Cleanup is Saturday, April 2 and they are inviting volunteers to show pride in their city by coming together for this community-wide cleanup. As part of the Don’t Mess with Texas Trash-Off and the Keep America Beautiful Great American Cleanup, this is a nation-wide event occurring in April.
The Great Tyler Cleanup will be hosted from Southside Park and volunteers are encouraged to meet at the tent for registration. Sign up will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the cleanup will begin at 9 a.m. While the event will be hosted from Southside Park, Keep Tyler Beautiful is encouraging volunteers to come grab the supplies they will need from us and pick a different spot to cleanup within the City. There are plenty of other locations that could use a little attention, including local parks and streets. For those who do not have another spot in mind, they are more than welcome to stay at Southside Park and clean up the creek and trails.
Volunteers are encouraged to pre-register online but can register in person that morning starting at 8:30 a.m. Pre-registered volunteers will receive a t-shirt and all the appropriate items needed for the cleanup. Keep Tyler Beautiful will be giving away door prizes that have been donated by local businesses and serve lunch and drinks. Lunch will be given out between 11:30 p.m. and 12:30 p.m. for those who participated in the cleanup.
For more information, you can visit our website at www.KeepTylerBeautiful.com or e-mail KTyB@TylerTexas.com. Volunteers can also find information online at https://bit.ly/GreatTylerCleanup.
Keep Tyler Beautiful is challenging Tyler area artists of all ages to create unique artwork for the Recycled Art Contest. This year’s theme is “Be a Recycling Superhero!” Artists are invited to create original artwork using recycled materials such as bottle caps, plastic, metal, paper and more.
The top three winners in each category will have their artwork displayed at the Great Tyler Cleanup on April 2, where they will receive a certificate and a Brookshire’s gift card of $5, $10 or $20. Submissions will be accepted no later than Friday, March 8 at 5 p.m.
