The sign up is closed, but volunteers are still welcome to join us! Please contact Amanda Seale at amanda@keepknoxvillebeautiful.org or 865-521-6957 for the event information.

The fourth annual community-wide East Knoxville Community Cleanup will be held on Saturday, September 21, 2024 from 9am-12pm. The event base will be at Ashley Nicole Dream Playground, located at 620 Winona St, Knoxville, TN 37917. 

 

We will be removing litter from East Knoxville roads, creeks, and parks. This year, we have a special partnership with Ijams Nature Center to remove invasive species along the greenway as well. Participants of any age are welcome! We look forward to seeing those who live, work, or play in East Knoxville - as well as anyone who wants to lend a helping hand. Thank you for keeping Knoxville beautiful! 

 

There are four volunteer options: two to sign up as an individual picking up litter, one to sign up as a group, and one to sign up for the invasive removal with Ijams. Please only fill out the section that applies to you.

  • Groups: Participating groups will send a leader to Mary Vestal Park to pick up supplies and then meet their group at their designated, or assigned neighborhood to pick up litter. Please only sign up as a group if you are wishing to lead your group in your own cleanup area.
