PASCO COUNTY, Fla. – There are many great green spaces and waterways in Pasco County that improve the quality of life for us – and for the wildlife that calls these areas home.

Event Details:

     WHEN:     Saturday, March 4, 2023

     WHERE:  Various Locations

Volunteer registration is open through February 24.  Disposable gloves, trash bags, and Great American Cleanup T-shirts will be provided, while supplies last.

“There is no trash fairy, and litter doesn’t magically disappear,” says Keep Pasco Beautiful Coordinator Kristen King.  “This is a great opportunity to educate our youth about litter and start effecting behavioral change in our community.”

In 2022, 761 volunteers picked up 22.65 tons of trash at 43 locations throughout Pasco.  This year, we hope to get more volunteers involved to clean up even more spaces.

This event is a partnership among Keep Pasco Beautiful, Pasco County Public Works, Pasco County Solid Waste, Coastal Waste & Recycling, and Tampa Bay Water.
