Residents Encouraged to Participate in “Keep Leesburg
Beautiful” Fall Cleanup
The one day event will take place on Saturday, October 22, 2022.
Leesburg, VA (October 11, 2022) – The
Town of Leesburg’s Environmental Advisory
Commission (EAC) invites Leesburg
residents to participate in a “Keep Leesburg
Beautiful” fall cleanup on Saturday,
October 22.
The Town will provide safety vests, gloves,
and trash bags, which can be picked up at
Raflo Park at 10 a.m. on the day of the
event.
Residents, community groups, and businesses are encouraged to participate in the upcoming
event by conducting their own trash clean-up activity and identifying locations throughout the
Town in need of litter cleanup. You can choose to work in your own neighborhood or choose a
particular spot in town you think needs attention. Town staff can make suggestions for cleanup
locations and help get permission from property owners (i.e., shopping centers) to work on
their property. Once your cleanup activity is complete, simply send an email to
trash@leesburgva.gov with the location of any trash bags and staff from the Department of
Public Works can come collect it.
While registration is not required, it will help staff to anticipate the number of people that will
be participating. Groups and individuals interested in participating can visit the Town of
Leesburg website at www.leesburgva.gov/KLB to register and for additional details.
