We will meet at the Sheridan Veterans Memorial at 6 pm, where the FMR will educate us on the project and then we will start the invasive plant removal.

Adopt a Block

Sheridan Neighborhood Cleanup Initiative Trash Free 2023!

A new initiative that the Sheridan Neighborhood Organization wants to put more effort into is keeping our streets as free from litter as possible. Over the years we have had very successful neighborhood cleanup days that have taken a substantial amount of litter off our streets, but unfortunately that litter builds back up very quickly. To keep Sheridan looking as great as it can, this year we want to try something different. We are still going to continue with our monthly cleanup days, but we will also be setting up a program in which our community works together to keep our streets clean on a more consistent and regular basis. We are putting out a call for volunteers from the community, both businesses and residents, that would be willing to adopt a block near them. These volunteers would agree to do a quick sweep of their selected zone and pick up any obvious trash that is laying around and dispose of it. We are hoping to have this done weekly at the volunteer’s convenience. Take a look at the map and select a section for you to adopt.  SNO will provide garbage bags and trash grabbers for the season! Each week be sure to snap some photos of what you picked up or some images of you in action to be included on our social media and newsletters.  The people who send in a photo every week will be entered in a drawing to win amazing prizes from some of our local sponsors. We deeply appreciate the help and your dedication to keeping our wonderful Sheridan neighborhood a wonderful place for all of us to live!
