Community Trash Cleanup

Triton College’s Sustainability Center is hosting a Community Trash Cleanup on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 1 p.m. The group will meet at Triton’s Botanical Gardens and will be picking up trash at Fullerton Woods (just north of the Botanical Gardens fence). The event is open to the campus community and neighbors.

“Triton’s Sustainability Center is hosting this event to provide an opportunity for participants to get outdoors and do meaningful work to maintain a natural space right next to the college,” said Benjamin Kadlec, Triton’s sustainability coordinator.

Kadlec added that cleanup events are essential to maintaining the natural environment of our local preserves. By volunteering to clean up pollutants like trash, participants are offering a vital service to the wildlife that calls Fullerton Woods their home.

Snacks and cleanup supplies will be provided. All participants must wear long pants. Click here to register.
