Councilwoman Cyndi McNamara announced today that it is once again time to register to participate in the Great East End Clean-Up, which will take place on Saturday, April 25 and Sunday, April 26.
The Great East End Clean-Up is a volunteer-based program to remove litter and debris from public areas throughout Southampton Town. Last year over 550 volunteers removed 7.76 tons of garbage and bulk items (furniture) from our beaches, parks, trails, and roadsides.
“The Great East End Clean-Up has become an annual event in our Town and I look forward to continuing the tradition,” said Councilwoman McNamara. “We live in a special place and the volunteers from the community really do make a difference.”
If you would like to participate, just select an area of public property such as a park, beach, trail, or roadside that is in need of cleaning and complete the registration form online by Wednesday, April 22. Individuals as well as groups are welcome to sign up.
New this year, we have partnered with HUGS and the SAFE in Southampton Coalition to hand out Deterra Drug Disposal Pouches with your clean-up supplies. The Deterra Pouches are a safe and easy way to dispose of unused or expired household medicines.
For more information or to register, please visit the Southampton Town website at www.southamptontownny.gov/GEECleanup, or call 631-283-5210.
