The Creative Enterprise Zone and Saint Anthony Park Community Council will co-host the Saint Paul Citywide Spring Cleanup at the corner of Raymond Ave and Territorial Road (2378 W Territorial Rd) from 9:00 a.m.–11:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 23. Stop by the CEZ tent to pick up supplies (gloves and bags) before heading out to pick up litter in our neighborhoods.

Volunteers are needed. Participating is easy! Just pre-register for our Raymond & Territorial location on the city's website at https://cerv.is/0177x106 or register the day of on-site. Together we can make a huge difference.

This family-friendly, community-focused event brings together neighbors and friends to clean up our parks and neighborhoods. Each year, volunteers gather across Saint Paul at multiple cleanup sites to pick up litter that has recently become uncovered by melting snow.

Trash drop points: Volunteers are able to drop their trash in three different places: next to any city garbage can in a Saint Paul park, at their own homes, or at designated drop sites along the street. Site hosts will be give maps of drop sites that are along the streets. The city will also have a map on the website.

Weather: This event may be postponed or canceled if there is inclement or severe weather. Watch for notifications.

Join your neighbors, get to know your community, and enjoy cleaner parks and streets this summer. We hope to see you there!
