Don’t Mess With Texas Trash Off

Join Keep Pearland Beautiful, Scout Troops, school groups, church groups, civic, families, organizations, and businesses from all over Pearland for the annual Don’t Mess With Texas Trash-Off on Saturday, April 10.

We will meet at the Stella Roberts Recycling Center, 5800 Magnolia, at 7:30 a.m. for breakfast tacos and assignments. Keep Pearland Beautiful will supply bags and gloves for the cleanup and will send a crew out to pick up the bags of trash. There will be caps for all volunteers and three cash prizes will be awarded. There will be a random drawing from wrap-up reports submitted on time and a prize for the group submitting the most original clean-up photo of their group. The third cash prize will go to the group collecting the most cigarette butts that day.

The Trash-Off is a part of a state-wide cleanup sponsored by Keep Texas Beautiful and the Texas Department of Transportation. It is also the signature event in Pearland for Keep America Beautiful’s Great American Cleanup, which runs from March through May and is considered the largest grassroots cleanup and community improvement event in the world. If you want to make a difference in our community, join us for the trash-off. For more information or to sign your group up to participate call the KPB office, 281-652-1659.
