This Saturday: Let’s Reach 3,000 Pounds of Trash Collected!

The Carlsbad Village Community Clean-Up returns this Saturday, March 8th, from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM, and we’re on the verge of an exciting milestone. With the support of Pure Project Carlsbad and Handel’s Carlsbad, volunteers have already collected 2,990 pounds of trash from the Village. Just 10 more pounds will push us past the 3,000-pound mark, and this clean-up could be the one that gets us there.

Volunteers will be treated to free coffee from Baba Coffee, a scoop of ice cream from Handel’s Ice Cream, and $1 off pints at Pure Project as a thank-you for helping out. Supplies will be provided, including trash pickers and repurposed grain bags from Pure Project, along with ice cream buckets from Handel’s to make collecting trash easier.

The trash weight contest is still going strong, with each event’s total being tracked. At the end of the year, the individual or team that collects the most will win a year of free trash pick-up, donated by Republic Services, or another special prize of equal value.

Join us at 2825 State Street (outside Pure Project) this Saturday and be part of this milestone moment. No RSVP necessary. Let’s work together to keep Carlsbad Village clean and beautiful.
