FAQs
Can I choose where I want to clean up?
Yes. During registration you will pick your cleanup site. To ensure all cleanup sites are covered, a maximum number of registrants per site is set. Register early and scope out your preferred site here.
What can I expect the morning of the event?
The day of the event, you may choose to join us for the ever-popular Ghidorzi Green and Clean kickoff at Corporate Cove, complete with fresh donuts and hot Starbucks coffee. Refreshments will be served starting at 8 a.m., and volunteers will be deployed to their cleanup sites at 8:45 a.m. Or you may report directly to the cleanup site you selected when you registered. Volunteers will clean up their registered site from 9-11 a.m., leaving bags of trash in a visible roadside location. A driver will be assigned to each cleanup site and will make the rounds picking up the bags. The phone number of your site’s trash pick-up driver will be on your printed site map.
