Keep Blount Beautiful is also looking for volunteers to clean up litter anytime/any day during BlountCounty’s Great American CleanUp, ending June 10. Litter has increased in our area and we need to work together to fight this problem. Keep Blount Beautiful offers free clean up supplies 365 days a year to include: trash bags, gloves, safety vests, safety signs, litter pickers and bag pick-up service when your clean up is complete in all areas of the city and county. Please join Keep Blount Beautiful in this effort.

“We are so excited to expand our clean-up event this year to include satellite locations. We are hoping this will encourage more individuals to take part and pride in their communities,” states Charlene DeSha, Keep Blount Beautiful Coordinator.
