Cleanups in the age of Covid-19

Group cleanup events are cancelled or postponed until the COVID-19 crisis passes, but that doesn't mean you can't get outside to clean up your street or neighborhood! With no vegetation growing yet, the litter can be spotted and accessed easily. And doing something active and constructive with your free time can be good for your mental and physical health during these stressful times. Just grab a pail or trash bag, some sturdy rubber gloves, a grabber or some kitchen tongs, and head outside. Email us a photo of your efforts or post to social media with the tags #keephpbeautiful and #just1bag2020 and you will be entered into a drawing to win a set of bamboo/stainless steel reusable utensils.
Please follow these safety tips if you venture out:
  • You must wear rubber or latex gloves.
  • Practice physical distancing and keep 6 feet apart from others.
  • If you include children, make sure they are CLOSELY supervised.
  • Use a trash grabber tool or even a set of old kitchen tongs.
  • Hose down gloves and tools and/or disinfect after each use.
  • Wear brightly colored clothing and clean up in the direction of oncoming traffic. Do not wander into the street.
  • If you find a needle, syringe, drug paraphernalia, biological waste (such as dirty diapers) DO NOT TOUCH. Contact 311 to report it.
If you would like to commit to cleaning your street on a regular basis, join our Adopt-a-Spot program to be eligible for supplies and an invitation to our year end volunteer party.     
Have fun and THANK YOU for keeping Hyde Park beautiful during this difficult time!
