Keep Aliso Viejo Trash Free: Tips, Clean Up Events In Your Town

ALISO VIEJO, CA — When you see a discarded can, wrapper or baggie, you may shake your head, but don't pass it by, pick it up, instead!

I taught my kids how to follow this little rule of thumb, thinking that if we all pitch in a little, we can make a big difference.

In Aliso Viejo, mark your calendar for an upcoming event to clean up local parks and trails. The city of Aliso Viejo announced a September date for the next organized clean up event, but that doesn't mean you have to wait.

Make a difference in your community by helping to clean up our environment during this year's Aliso Viejo Trails, and Creek Clean-up event from 8-11 am on Saturday, September 21!

Free refreshments will be provided for volunteers who should wear appropriate attire and closed-toed shoes or hiking boots. Bring gardening or work gloves if you have them. Volunteers meet at the Aliso Viejo Ranch.

And remember! Patch recommends you follow the "See Three" rule every time you head out the door. If you can find three or more pieces of trash to dispose of properly, you're doing an excellent job for your local environment.
