Join In Columbia Cleanup Day with All 10 Villages

Columbia can be even more beautiful — and the environment can be more healthy — after just three hours on Columbia Cleanup Day.

Columbia Cleanup Day will take place on Saturday, March 21, with volunteers simultaneously picking up trash that has accumulated at open space locations in all 10 villages. Nine of Columbia’s villages are scheduled to work from 9 a.m. to noon, while the Kings Contrivance event will be held from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
