Keep Lee County Beautiful (KLCB) has slated the 21st Annual “Earth Day Trash Bash” for Saturday, April 21, 2010. The countywide litter cleanup campaign will take place from 9am to 12 noon. This is a day when all Lee County residents and visitors are invited to make a difference in their environment by cleaning up their own neighborhoods and communities. Volunteer groups of all kinds are welcome to participate.

The local cleanup is part of the nationwide “Great American Cleanup” effort sponsored by Keep America Beautiful. KLCB has established check-in and collection sites throughout Lee County. Soft drinks will be available courtesy of Pepsi South and water provided by Wal-Mart. Glad ForceFlex trash bags will also be provided. Waste Pro, Veolia Environmental Services, Inc., and Waste Management are providing disposal.

KLCB is a private non-profit organization dedicated to litter prevention and responsible solid waste disposal practices. Last year’s Trash Bash volunteers removed 64,377 pounds of trash and debris from Lee County’s roadsides, shorelines and parks.

Following is a list of Trash Bash check-in sites.
