STILLWATER, OKLAHOMA / Feb. 4 2020) – The City of Stillwater Environmental Programs and Stormwater divisions are coordinating the Annual Trash-Off event to be held on Saturday, March 28 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.  Volunteers will meet at the Stillwater Community Center at 315 W 8th Ave.  Contact the Environmental Programs division at 405.533.8482 by March 20 to RSVP the number of people in your group. Individuals are also welcome.

The City of Stillwater began coordinating the Annual Trash-Off event in 2006.  These events continue to enable citizens to volunteer and clean up trash from areas all around town.  During these events, citizens take to the streets and streams to show that “Litter is Not OK”.  Volunteers will meet at 9 a.m. An award for the group that collects the most trash will be presented and hot dogs and drinks will be provided as well. This is an opportunity for individuals to receive verified community service hours. This is also an opportunity for groups to clean a Stillwater creek or stream, if desired.

The Environmental Programs division will also provide work gloves, safety vests and trash bags for participants. For additional information on the event, contact the Environmental Programs division at 405.533.8482 or visit stillwater.org.
