This event has passed

EcoAction Arlington’s Annual Cleanup and Trash Tally is held in conjunction with Clean Virginia Waterways and sponsored globally by the Ocean Conservancy. Volunteers pick up trash and debris from Barcroft Park and collect data, using the Clean Swell app, about the litter they remove which helps identify trends and solutions to reduce plastic pollution.

This event is all about coming together to clean up our surroundings and tally the trash we collect. By participating, you’ll be contributing to a cleaner and greener environment. Bring your friends, family, and anyone who shares the same passion for taking care of our planet!

We can’t wait to see you there! Let’s come together and make our community cleaner and more sustainable. Together, we can create a positive impact for a greener future!
