The City of Victorville holds two city-wide Community Cleanup Days will hold its next event on Oct. 21. The Victorville Community Cleanup Day is a fun way for families, friends, and coworkers to join together to take care of our desert environment, show community support, and keep Victorville a clean and beautiful place to live and work. The registration deadline is Oct. 6 at VictorvilleCA.gov/CCU. For sponsorship information, call 760.955.3306
Community Cleanup Days are outdoor events and depend on volunteers to be successful. All volunteers must register, which includes an event liability waiver. Minors can participate, but must have parent/guardian permission and provide parent/guardian contact information. Volunteers aged 14 and younger must have a parent/guardian accompany them on the service project. High School volunteers (aged 15 through 17) may participate without a parent/guardian present, but must be part of a school/civic group with adult supervision. Young children are not recommended at this event.
Volunteers work in teams at multiple locations throughout the City from 8:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. to pick up litter from roadsides. Volunteers receive a free event t-shirt (while supplies last) and coupons for a discounted lunch at participating local restaurants. The City also provides volunteers with bottled water, gloves, trash bags, and litter sticks. The City disposes of all the trash/litter collected.
