This weekend, you can gather your crew of kiddos and spend a day cleaning up Little Rock! At 8 a.m. March 14, Little Rock Mayor Mark Stodola will kick off the 2015 Citywide Cleanup at the Willie Hinton Neighborhood Resource Center (3805 W. 12th St.).

Then, from 8:30 a.m.-noon, volunteers will help pick up litter and beautify neighborhoods and parks around the city, including Boyle Park (2000 Boyle Park Road), Benny Craig Park/Fourche Creek (4610 Gum Springs Road), and War Memorial Park.

The annual effort is led by Keep Little Rock Beautiful, a volunteer-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to litter prevention, recycling and waste reduction, and community improvement and beautification. In 2014, the cleanup resulted in 909 bags of trash and litter, 100 bags plus 8 cubic yards of recyclable materials, 236 acres of cleaned park land, 16.7 miles of cleaned trails and more.

Working with neighborhood associations, parks and Adopt-a-Street participants, KLRB has organized over 30 cleanup sites for this year's event. Get involved in this year's event by emailing info@klrb.org or calling (501) 765-3530. To learn more, visit at KeepLittleRockBeautiful.com.
