Headquarters for the Ward 4 cleanup will be located near Carney Academy on Morgan and Summer Streets. The cleanup is sponsored by Barry’s Fine Wine and Spirits.
Students, individuals, families and community service groups are encouraged to volunteer with Operation Clean Sweep to earn community service hours, demonstrate support for the neighborhood, and pride in the community.
Barry’s Fine Wine and Spirits will provide breakfast for volunteers in the morning and lunch will be provided by Domino’s Pizza, “The Official Pizza” of Operation Clean Sweep.
Volunteers are encouraged to pre-register by visiting www.operationcleansweep.net or by calling (508) 979-1493.
Pre-registration is not required but it is preferred so that organizers are better able to plan for the needs of the day. Volunteers are asked to wear closed toe shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather. Tools and gloves are provided. Walk-ups are always welcome and all volunteer names will be entered into a drawing for a covered trash barrel!
Anyone interested in hosting a cleanup is encouraged to call (508) 979-1493 for more information.
