The weather this weekend is looking nice and Sunday is Earth Day: why not get out and help pick up some litter around the area? The “Great CoHi Cleanup” is this Saturday, April 21, from 1-3pm. The event, organized by local resident Jordana Merran and a few ANC commissioners, aims to bring people together and help make our are look tidy.
Here’s more details, and there is an invite link too (mostly to remind yourself.)
Columbia Heights has a pretty serious trash problem. Plastic bottles, aluminum cans, straws, lids, and more line nearly every sidewalk.
But on Saturday, April 21– the day before Earth Day– residents and friends will take to the streets and show the neighborhood (and the planet) a little love. Volunteers will go out in teams to pick up trash and litter at The Great CoHi Cleanup.
Sign up to volunteer on Eventbrite and follow the Facebook page for news and updates leading up to the event. Trash bags and gloves will be provided; but bring a reusable water bottle and wear a green shirt if you have one!
