Now in its sixth year, the event has already had a meaningful impact throughout the County as it not only calls attention to environmental items, but galvanizes County residents around a common cause.
“Every April, local residents provide invaluable assistance to the County in keeping our communities, green spaces and waterways clean and beautiful,” said Patti LaVigne, Chair of the Livingston County Environmental Management Council. “This year we hope to expand community engagement by encouraging individuals, families and organizations to participate in this worthy endeavor.”
