Volunteers Needed for Great American Clean Up in St. Pete

Join this annual event and help make your local bayous, Tampa Bay and the Gulf of Mexico cleaner, one bag at a time!

Shopping carts, lawn furniture, car tires and other debris - large and small - have been pulled from our waterways over the years and efforts like the Great American Clean Up encourage friends, families and neighbors to get out, get dirty and grab some garbage.

Everyone is encouraged to volunteer at one of six sites in St. Petersburg on Saturday, March 16 from 9 a.m. to noon.
