WHAT IS CLEAN SWEEP?

Clean Sweep is KAB's annual citywide cleanup that takes place all over Austin.  The first 4,000 volunteers to register get a free event t-shirt and it’s followed by an awesome Volunteer Party and Environmental Fair at Waterloo Park which includes: free lunch, live music, kid’s environmental activities, recycled art, door prizes and more!  Last year more than 4,000 volunteers registered to cleanup 120+ sites!

KAB’s 25th CLEAN SWEEP IS ON APRIL 10TH, 2010

Next Clean Sweep will be on Saturday, April 9th 2011

HOW

  • General Volunteers: Click here to join an existing project that needs some extra helping hands. (We are working on a slight glitch with our registration database, and currently one part of the confirmation email says that Clean Sweep is on April 4th.  This year's Clean Sweep is Saturday, April 10th, 2010).
  • LeadersProject registration deadline = March 26, 2010.  This allows KAB staff time to map and coordinate all trash pickup locations, as well as, pack correct supplies for the 100+ groups.  Contact Jessica@keepaustinbeautiful.org or 512.391.0622 with any questions.
