Our partners, Town of Garner, need help keeping Garner clean and green by removing litter from our parks, roadways, and streams. Volunteers should wear closed-toed shoes and clothes that can get dirty, bring drinking water, and wear sun protection. Report to the Holly Shelter at White Deer Park to receive your assignment and equipment. All supplies will be provided.
Pre-registration is strongly encouraged. On-site registration begins at 8:45 AM at the shelter on the morning of the project. Groups welcome!
Volunteers must be at least 8 years old to volunteer. Adults must register and accompany children under the age of 14. Everyone who volunteers must sign a release form. If anyone is under the age of 18, then a parent or guardian must sign their form as well.

About Wake County Big Sweep
Location:

Mission Statement
Wake County Big Sweep is a citizen volunteer effort to protect our watersheds, water quality, and make our environment litter-free. For over 30 years, Big Sweep has coordinated cleanups in Wake County focused on watersheds, streams, lakes, and wetlands that ultimately lead to the ocean. We rely on our lead volunteers, Zone Captains, who conduct cleanups to dispose of trash and recycling across various locations in Wake County.
Description
Big Sweep plays an important role in watershed protection by keeping Wake County’s waterways litter-free, ecologically viable, and safe for drinking or other designated water uses. Big Sweep volunteers are often the first ones who bring illicit discharges and other potential pollutants to their local government’s attention. Volunteers pull out the garbage that can harm the water you drink, the places you fish, the wildlife you love, and the beautiful waterways you canoe, fish, and swim in!
