Join us for Davenport’s annual Garbage Gobble Litter Cleanup event. This year we will be cleaning up a section of the Brady Street gateway to our community. This is a great opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, make new friends, and have fun all making a positive impact on our community and water resources. 

Registration & Details!

Date:  8 to 11 a.m., Saturday, November 22 

Who can Participate? This opportunity is open to anyone interested in beautifying Davenport and protecting the health of our local waterways. No previous experience is necessary. Individuals 16 and under must have adult supervision. 

Description of Project: Volunteers will be picking up litter along North Brady Street. Litter pickup consists of walking, bending and placing wastes in a bag for disposal and carries little hazard. This activity will take place in the boulevards of highly trafficked areas. Volunteers will receive safety instruction and safety vests prior to the cleanup. Due to proximity of traffic, this event may be not suitable for younger children. 

Weather? Weather is very variable in November. It could be a sunny day with a high of 50, or a day with rain sprinkles around 35. Past volunteers have enjoyed the cleanup and the challenge of all weather conditions. Because of difficulties associated with canceling and rescheduling, we will clear litter in light rain and low temperatures; however, it may end earlier for volunteer comfort. We will only cancel if there is a chance for significant rain, snow, high winds, or threat of lightening. Just remember to dress for conditions.

Other Details:  Volunteers should wear clothing appropriate for weather conditions and to get dirty.
