The Keep Brevard Beautiful 41st Annual Trash Bash, held in conjunction with The Great American Cleanup, will be held on Saturday, April 6, 2024, from 8 a.m. to noon.
The City of Melbourne is seeking volunteers (children must be accompanied by an adult) to help clean up our community.
Participants will have the opportunity to earn volunteer hours and help with the mission to keep plastic and litter out of our vulnerable lagoon, ocean and other waterways. Breakfast, snacks and t-shirts (limited amount) will be provided. Please bring your own water bottle and dress appropriately for weather. If you own a kayak or paddleboard, Riverview Park is the perfect place to join the cleanup.
The City of Melbourne has nine site locations that volunteers can go to in order to participate:
- Downtown Melbourne/Melbourne Main Street, 2004 Vernon Place
- Ascension Catholic School, 2950 N. Harbor City Boulevard
- Carver Community Park, 1092 Swan Street
