CLEANUP INFORMATION

- 10 people per team, large groups will need to split up to make the competition fair.
- A map of the Trash-Off zones can be found below. If you know of a road in need of cleaning and is outside of the zones you may collect trash there and bring it to your zone's designated trash drop for counting. Please, no trash from your home and stay within city limits.
- The map shows a red dot in each zone that represents a trash drop. There will be a sign posted at each drop that says "Keep Weatherford Beautiful Trash-Off drop here".
- Each team is responsible for counting the amount of trash collected and dropping off their "report card" to our staff once you return to the Heritage Park Food Park at 11:45 am. Our Parks crew will recount the trash during the trash pickup process.


SAFETY TIPS

- Wear gloves (latex gloves are provided - you may want to bring your own heavy duty gloves from home)
- Wear thick soled, closed toe shoes, long pants, long sleeved shirt
- Wear sunscreen and bug repellent
