I would like to see this type of event to be hosted in the Spring time. During the winter trash gets hidden in the snow. It melts in the Spring to reveal a disgusting mess. Then all summer goes by making the city look like a dump. We should have clean up events during the Spring and early Summer!!
I’m looking forward to help this October.
