2nd Ward Clean & Green

Alderman Bob Fioretti (2nd) invites you, your family, and your organization to join him in volunteering for his fall, biannual, 2nd Ward Clean and Green activity this Saturday, Oct. 15, beginning promptly at 10 a.m.

What is a clean and green?
It’s a day set aside to tackle the litter and/or weeds that you have always wanted clean out. Neighbors, active dog owners, scouts, friends, and local businesspeople work together to pick up trash, pull weeds, paint out grafitti, and do various block beautification projects.

It can be as simple as bending over and picking up the litter that others carelessly leave behind or it can involve your hosting a site or coordinating the participation of an organization to which you belong.

Join your neighbors, business leaders, community organizers, and church congregations to help make a big difference in our neighborhoods. As the saying goes, we are all in this together. The ward is our neighborhood so let’s keep it clean!
