Griffin Grives Back: National Recycling Week & District 3 Cleanup

Trash cleanup of the area and neighborhood around District 3, hosted by the City of Griffin.

About this Event


Are you looking to make a difference in our City? Join the City of Griffin on Saturday, November 15, 2025 for a cleanup of District 3 in celebration of National Recycling Week!

This is one of six events in the 2025 Griffin Gives Back Community Wide Cleanup Series—a series of cleanup events, each focusing on cleaning up the neighborhoods, parks, and streams within a different City district.

The focus of this event will be on District 3. We will be starting at Third Ward Park and cleaning in surrounding District 3 neighborhoods on November 15, 2025 from 9am until 1pm.

What are we providing? We will provide garbage bags, gloves, grabbers, vests, water, and snacks and lunch!

What should you bring/wear? Clothing you don’t mind getting dirty! Waterproof boots if you plan on adventuring in one of the streams! Bug spray, hat, and clothing that will protect your arms and legs. This year, because our efforts are going to be focused on the neighborhoods across a specific district of the city and not a specific water body, there may be some driving, similar to Stream Cleanup. You may need to provide your own transportation to another site, carpooling will be encouraged! The City will provide maps marking optional locations for parking throughout the district.

How do I learn more about the 2025 Griffin Gives Back Communitywide Cleanup events? Sign ups will be through Eventbrite, so check the City of Griffin Stormwater Eventbrite page and the City of Griffin Facebook for details. We are also preparing a list of citizens who may need special assistance on their properties in an effort to connect willing community volunteers with those in need. Please contact Kelsey Carden, a2NhcmRlbiB8IGNpdHlvZmdyaWZmaW4gISBjb20=, if you are willing to assist citizens who may need assistance on their properties.
