On May 19, 2012 from 9:00-12:00 head to Wisner Park to participate in Elmira’s Annual Downtown Cleanup and Operation Green Streets.

Elmira Downtown partners with the City of Elmira, Elmira Kiwanis Club, Pembrook Pines Media Group, and other community agencies and local businesses in a downtown “spring cleaning.” The Downtown Cleanup Crew is a volunteer program that heads downtown for a few hours to clean winter debris off our streets and walkways. Last year, over 400 volunteers supported this endeavor and helped to make Elmira a more beautiful place to live, work and play. Groups ranging in age from kindergartners to senior citizens worked together to clean specific blocks, both on the Southside & Northside of Downtown Elmira. Volunteers are supplied with everything they need, gloves, rakes, bags and buckets….and of course, a giant pizza party for a job well done!

After Downtown Cleanup – Elmira Downtown will plant flowers in our planters and our flower beds – if you are interested in planting flowers – please let us know on the registration form. Operation Green Streets will take place from 12:30-2:30 – Flowers will be available in Clemens Square.

And remember, as a volunteer, you will receive a DTCU t-shirt showing your support, along with a pizza party in the park after clean-up. So, please join the Downtown Cleanup crew and take pride in your community. For more information, please contact Elmira Downtown at 734-0341
