Community Partners & Resources
Join us at the Great Framingham Cleanup
On Saturday, April 17th, 2021 members of the Framingham Earth Day Festival & Keep Framingham Beautiful invite everyone to the “Great Framingham Cleanup”. This distributed event will replace this year's Framingham Earth Day Festival as something that we can all safely do as a community during continued times of social distancing.
Their GOAL: 100+ folks picking up litter on April 17th and posting pictures of their progress to our Facebook group: www.facebook.com/groups/keepframinghambeautiful
They plan to give out superlatives for the categories listed below so be ready to post fun and creative pictures!
* Most creative post
* Most amazing encounter with the public (picture with a story)
* Strangest object found
* Funniest picture
* Best before and after pictures
* Biggest haul
* And some that we will make up as we go!
If you cannot participate on April 17th feel free to pick up litter on Sunday, April 18th (or any other day) and post to our Facebook group. A rain date of Saturday, April 24th is planned in the event that the weather prevents us from picking up litter on April 17th.
This event is co-sponsored by Keep Framingham Beautiful, Framingham Earth Day Festival, Framingham Centre Nursery School, FramBark, and the Framingham DPW.
