Guilford's Green Up Activities

Past event
May 4, 2019, 8 AM to 5 PM

GREEN UP Guilford, VT on Saturday, May 4th. 8 am – 5 pm

Meet at the Broad Brook Community Center (aka the Grange) in Guilford to get Green Up bags and mark your clean up route on the map. After you've picked up the roadside garbage, return to the Grange and throw all you've found into the designated Town trucks. The trucks will be on site until 5 pm.

Refreshments will be available throughout the day. "Caution, Green Up In Progress" signs will be posted along roads. Adult safety vests will be available. Remember to wear long pants, sturdy shoes, use gloves and insect/tick repellent.

For those who'd like to get an early start, Green Up Bags are available beginning April 15th at the Town office. See Elly.

Green Up is a great way for BUHS students to earn community service hours.

Returnables - drop off your clean returnable bottles to support CC4G, the Community Collaborative for Guilford.

CHALLENGE - Suggested Viewing: "A Plastic Ocean" (link to trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57jv8vBIUHI). Share your ideas on how to reduce plastic use at BBCC on 5/4.
