Bust out your brooms for the annual ‘Sweep the Town’ event in Gardnerville this Saturday
On Saturday, May 7th, Main Street Gardnerville will be tidying up downtown Gardnerville with our annual Sweep the Town event.
The Main Street Gardnerville program, along with the Town of Gardnerville, will be hosting a “Sweep the Town” workday on Saturday, May 7th, 9:00 am until 12:00 pm and you can be a part of it. We would like to encourage all the community to get out and clean this Saturday, either downtown with us or in your own neighborhood.
We are seeking individuals, service groups, clubs, and businesses to provide teams of volunteers to give back to the community and help us as we spruce up Main Street and the community we love. Volunteers will be picking up trash, cleaning benches, weeding, and sweeping sidewalks and much more throughout our Downtown. Please join us for a morning of light work and networking with others from our community.
Some equipment will be provided; however, we encourage you to bring your own gloves, gardening tools and/or broom to ensure there is enough to go around.
Can't participate in person but still want to be a part of the event? A great way to show your appreciation would be to send a donation or sponsor the clean-up. Main Street Gardnerville is a 501 c 3 non-profit and any donations can be considered a tax write-off. Anything you have to offer will help.
We will meet at the Gardnerville Station, 1395 US Highway 395 North at 9:00 am, May 7th, for coffee and instructions on projects for the day. Carson Valley Medical Center will be on hand offering hydration for all our dedicated volunteers.
The first Sweep the Town cleanup day was held at the turn of the 20th century by the Gardnerville Volunteer Fire Department. In honor of the East Fork Volunteer Fire Department, we have continued the annual event.
